(2) K-3 Illustrated by Giselle Potter. Grandin, who grew up with autism and hypersensitivity to touch, saw a calf become calm after entering a squeeze chute and made a comparable human "hug machine." The authors take readers from Grandin's early childhood through young adulthood, lightly sketching in biographical information to focus on her antipathy to being hugged and her invention. Illustrations capture Grandin's likeness well and reinforce the text's emphasis on her interests.
