How to Be a Friend to Someone with Autism
A Christian Children's Guide to Understanding, Kindness, and Friendship
When Emma and Eli meet a new classmate named Torin, they aren't quite sure how to become his friend. Torin loves trains, sometimes wears headphones, and experiences the world a little differently than they do.
As they spend time together, Emma and Eli learn that friendship isn't about being the same-it's about being kind, patient, and understanding. Through simple lessons and everyday adventures, children will discover how to include others, respect differences, and love their friends the way Jesus taught us to love one another.
Perfect for children ages 4-8, this heartwarming story introduces autism in a positive, age-appropriate way while helping young readers develop empathy, compassion, and confidence in building friendships with children of all abilities.
Inside this book, children will learn:
- Why some friends wear headphones
- Why eye contact can be difficult for some people
- Why routines are important to some children
- How to be patient and understanding
- Practical ways to include everyone in play and friendship
- What the Bible teaches about kindness and loving others
Part of the God Made Us All series, this encouraging Christian picture book reminds children that every person is made in God's image, deeply loved by Him, and worthy of friendship.
Because God made us all different-and everyone belongs.
