Three autistic kids reflect on the strengths and struggles of living with autism

In Uncommonly Curious, Eternally Autistic, Elijah, Izzy, and Rio explain what it's like to live with autism. They share their special interests, show what helps when they feel overstimulated, and describe how they communicate. For now, they sometimes have to mask their autistic traits to fit in and be safe, but they believe in a future where the world will make space for them, just as they are. Together, the three children learn, play, and celebrate the many ways they are autistically amazing.

  • Depicts three autistic kids who explain special interests, stimming, masking, and other autistic experiences
