      This is the basic story of the life and death and resurrection of Jesus that became the Christian holiday of Easter. It covers the latter part of his life when he attracted a following as he taught about the love of God and then was betrayed to the Romans. Although the book discusses the crucifixion, there is no graphic text or illustration depicting this event. After the events of the death and resurrection are retold, the author goes on to explain how the holy day that became Easter got its name and discusses some of the practices and traditions that are part of the holiday in different places, including intersting information about the custom of decorating Easter eggs. This is a well told, informative look at the most holy of Christian holidays.

      Mention the word autism and the room suddenly turns silent. It’s the dreaded A word. People’s attention turns to late night TV public service ads declaring that autistic children are “imprisoned” by autism and need curing at all cost. Recent autobiographies have helped dispel this dire description by suggesting that autism is not a prison and that the door is unlocked and you’re free to come in. Women from Another Planet? moves beyond these autistic life stories in important ways. It’s a collection of stories and conversations, all of them by women on the autism spectrum who speak candidly, insightfully, and often engagingly about both their gender in terms of their autism and their autism in terms of their gender. It is written not just for parents and professionals, like the other works, but also to those women still searching for ways to understand the unnamed difference they live with, as well as the wider audience of discerning readers. If you enter the unlocked door of these Women from Another Planet? you may end up with a question mark or two about your planet. Is normalcy really all it’s cracked up to be?
