When Mathew realises Simon is a little different to his other friends, he’s just not sure if he wants to have ‘a friend like Simon’. However, a school trip to the funfair soon helps to change his mind!  This new book will be a very welcome resource for Irish parents and teachers alike as an introduction to Autism\/ASD for other young children.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Special Stories Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47120392388848,"sku":"9780955578779","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780955578779_p0.jpg?v=1763871558","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780955578779","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
