Temple Grandin

How the Girl Who Loved Cows Embraced Autism and Changed the World
Jan 28, 2014
"Dr. Temple Grandin is an animal scientist, a bestselling author, a college professor, one of Time magazine's 100 most influential people of 2010... and she also happens to have autism. This "riveting" (VOYA) and inspirational authorised biography tells the story of her childhood, her many struggles and accomplishments, and her groundbreaking work for more humane treatment of livestock. It includes a foreword written by Grandin herself plus a special section of "Temple's Advice for Kids on the Spectrum." Neurotypical readers looking for additional real-life insight should try How to Talk to an Autistic Kid by Daniel Stefanski."
