Critics Review
“This book seeks to normalize the experience of autistic children. In making them heroes, there is insight into their perspectives and personal experiences which is fun and engaging. This is a story which is sure to resonate with many young readers in the 8-12 age group.” – Buzz Words Magazine
“The information about children on the autism spectrum never dominates what is an engaging, sometimes suspenseful, character-driven story. Highly recommended for the story, the realistic representation of a significant group and potential to increase understanding, tact and tolerance in schools and wider communities.” – Magpies Magazine
“Superheroes for a Day is a story everyone should read. It’s an immersive reading experience, one that helps build understanding and empathy.” – Kids’ Book Review
