Over 500,000 children will become adults over the next decade. There is a social stigma, media misrepresentations and fear mongering that surrounds those with autism making them vulnerable to isolation and negative stereotypes.

Targeted for children ages 5 - 11, features an Aspie protagonist who sees the world from a unique perspective. Curriculum based on Common Core State Standards has been developed to accompany the app. We received the Temple Grandin Award for this work.
