It isn't easy being eight years old and having an older brother whom other children often misunderstand. They don't realize that when he doesn't laugh at their jokes it's because he doesn't understand them. They don't know that when he doesn't speak to them or look at them it's because he doesn't know what to say or how to make eye contact. They don't realize that he behaves this way because he has something called Asperger's Syndrome. Sam knows that his brother Eric is different from him because his brain works differently. So, when the other children bully Eric, it makes Sam feel protective of him. But sometimes, when Eric behaves oddly, Sam feels embarrassed too. Sometimes, when Eric gets lots of attention, it makes Sam feel resentful - then, when he considers that Eric needs a lot of help and attention, it makes Sam feel guilty for feeling resentful. There are so many different feelings Sam experiences! Brotherly Feelings explores the emotions that siblings of children with Asperger's Syndrome (AS) commonly experience. With illustrations throughout, this book will help siblings to understand that their emotional responses - whatever they are - are natural and OK. It is the ideal book for parents and professionals to use with siblings to discuss their emotional experiences, and will also help children with AS to form an understanding of the feelings of other family members.

“Beautifully written and delightfully gay,” Mr. Dalloway sheds new light on Virginia Woolf’s classic novel (The Advocate). It’s the day of their thirtieth anniversary, and Richard Dalloway has arranged a surprise party for his wife, Clarissa. But as he leaves their house in Westminster to buy flowers, his thoughts turn to Robert Davies—a young editor with whom he has been having an affair for many years. Tired of Richard’s efforts to contain their relationship, Robbie has exposed their affair in a letter to Clarissa, who tells her husband that she “understands.” Despite his misgivings, Richard finds himself on his way to Robbie’s house—only to be shaken by the discovery that Robbie isn’t there. As in Virginia Woolf’s original novel, Mr. Dalloway takes place within a single day, unfolding with a simultaneity of events: Clarissa walks in London and remembers her courtship with Richard; their daughter Elizabeth searches for answers about her eccentric history tutor’s somewhat mysterious and premature death; and a determined and drunken Robert Davies decides to crash the Dalloway’s party, dressed all in white satin. As Woolf’s literary creation is reshaped into a completely new story, Mr. Dalloway rides forward on waves of a masterfully complex and musical prose, full of wit, linguistic verve, and startling imagery. “Lippincott calls his first novel a ‘creative response’ to the Virginia Woolf classic of similar title, but its virtuoso handling of the inner life of its characters should delight more than just Woolf enthusiasts.” —Publishers Weekly “A playful and worthy companion to both Mrs. Dalloway and Michael Cunningham’s recent, Pulitzer Prize-winning The Hours.” —Booklist
