(3) PS Isaac attributes his differences, such as fidgeting, forgetting to say hello, and telling people miscellaneous facts, to being a superhero. The instructive text about characteristics of children on the autism spectrum is made approachable by friendly, colorful illustrations with pleasing shapes and by the story's fantasy set-up with a turn of honesty (Isaac admits at the end he has Asperger's, not superpowers).
