Wow, this really takes me back to when my little brother was a child. He used to run along fences like a cat!
It also does highlight some of the differences between aspergers and autism though. I have a very active imagination, almost too much so, yet I still have classic aspergers symptoms in spades.

Maybe post the link in the "recommended reading" sticky thread?

Can I merge it into the recommended reading thread? The owner of the site prefers not to have too many stickies.

I've copied the information over because, for some reason I can't figure out and have no desire to spend more time on, the attempts to merge or move are not working.

I got a chuckle out of a couple of the illustrations. Like the little guy in his winter jacket in the summer, because that is sooo like my sons right now! :) And many of the other ones took me back to when they were little.

Great resource.
