DescriptionLike many others on the autism spectrum, 20-something stand-up comic Michael McCreary has been told by more than a few well-meaning folks that he doesnt look autistic. But, as hes quick to point out in this memoir, autism looks different for just about everyone with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Diagnosed with ASD at age five, McCreary got hit with the performance bug not much later. During a difficult time in junior high, he started journaling, eventually turning his pain e into something empowering--and funny. He scored his first stand-up gig at age 14, and hasnt looked back. This unique and hilarious #OwnVoices memoir breaks down what its like to live with autism for readers on and off the spectrum. Candid scenes from McCrearys life are broken up with funny visuals and factual asides. Funny, You Dont Look Autistic is an invaluable and compelling read for young readers with ASD looking for voices to relate to, as well as for readers hoping to broaden their understanding of ASD.
