‘Ignat and Others, How to Raise a Special Child” by Denis Bilunov and Julia Mazurova

Meeting Ignat now, you can hardly believe that he was diagnosed with autism in his early childhood. Now he behaves as a regular teenager. Ignat is a bit stooped, not very sociable with unique sense of humour. It is hard to believe that the same kid was enrolled to the first grade of correctional school two years later than his peers. Now Ignat studies abroad. He is fluent in several languages. And he plays the organ. Ignat’s parents tell their story of experience of raising an autistic child in a frank and matter-of-fact way. The book has been approved by Ignat.
