My Brother’s World | 弟弟的世界
Author: 刘清彦 图 Illustrator: 陈盈帆
From: Taiwan
The six year old brother lives in a world that others find it hard to enter and when they do, the little brother often retaliates with anger, screams and sometimes even self inflicted injury. This is a story from an elder brother’s perspective about his mixed feelings about his autistic brother but eventually they found a way to bond through nursing an injured bird. The elder brother could relate to his autistic brother after he understood that the brother is like a trapped bird yearning for freedom. This is a gentle story about autistic children, how they are often misunderstood by people around them. They may be a little different inside but they are all the same, just like any other child, who yearns for love and understanding.
