"One of the most remarkable books I've ever read. It's truly moving, eye-opening, incredibly vivid."-Jon Stewart, The Daily Show NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY NPR * The Wall Street Journal * Bloomberg Business * Bookish FINALIST FOR THE BOOKS FOR A BETTER LIFE FIRST BOOK AWARD * NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The Reason I Jump . Written by Naoki Higashida, a very smart, very self-aware, and very charming thirteen-year-old boy with autism, it is a one-of-a-kind memoir that demonstrates how an autistic mind thinks, feels, perceives, and responds in ways few of us can imagine. Parents and family members who never thought they could get inside the head of their autistic loved one at last have a way to break through to the curious, subtle, and complex life within.The Reason I Jump allowed me to round a corner in our relationship." This translation was a labor of love by David and his wife, KA Yoshida, so they'd be able to share that feeling with friends, the wider autism community, and beyond. Naoki's book, in its beauty, truthfulness, and simplicity, is a gift to be shared.Praise for The Reason I Jump

You've never read a book like - Chicago Tribune

Using an alphabet grid to painstakingly construct words, sentences, and thoughts that he is unable to speak out loud, Naoki answers even the most delicate questions that people want to know. Questions such as: "Why do people with autism talk so loudly and weirdly?" "Why do you line up your toy cars and blocks?" "Why don't you make eye contact when you're talking?" and "What's the reason you jump?" (Naoki's answer: "When I'm jumping, it's as if my feelings are going upward to the sky.") With disarming honesty and a generous heart, Naoki shares his unique point of view on not only autism but life itself. His insights-into the mystery of words, the wonders of laughter, and the elusiveness of memory-are so startling, so strange, and so powerful that you will never look at the world the same way again.

In his introduction, bestselling novelist David Mitchell writes that Naoki's words allowed him to feel, for the first time, as if his own autistic child was explaining what was happening in his mind. "It is no exaggeration to say that

(Editor's Choice) -Whoopi Goldberg, People

"This is an intimate book, one that brings readers right into an autistic mind." The Reason I Jump is a Rosetta stone. . . . This book takes about ninety minutes to read, and it will stretch your vision of what it is to be human." -Andrew Solomon, The Times (U.K.)

"Amazing times a million." -The Boston Globe - Parade

"Extraordinary, moving, and jeweled with epiphanies."

"Small but profound . . . [Higashida's] startling, moving insights offer a rare look inside the autistic mind."

Can you imagine not being able to speak or communicate? The silence, the loneliness, the pain. But, inside you disappear to magical places, and even meet your best friend there. However, most of the time you remain imprisoned within the isolation. Waiting, longing, hoping. Until someone realises your potential and discovers your key, so your unlocking can begin. Now you are free, flying like a wild bird in the open sky. A voice for the voiceless. , we read of his intense passion for life, his mischievous sense of fun, his hopes, his fears and what it's like to be him. This is a powerful book from an incredible young writer whose writing ability defies age or physical disability - a truly inspirational figure.

Jonathan Bryan has severe cerebral palsy, a condition that makes him incapable of voluntary movement or speech. He was locked inside his own mind, aware of the outside world but unable to fully communicate with it until he found a way by using his eyes to laboriously choose individual letters, and through this make his thoughts known.

Foreword by Sir Michael Morpurgo

A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to Jonathan Bryan's charity, Teach Us Too.

Inclusion for Children & Young People in Lincolnshire

The Working Together Team is a National Autistic Society Advanced Status Accredited Service. We advocate best practice and provide specialist support to empower mainstream settings to ensure autistic children & young people thrive through collaborative working with families and professionals.

3 Key Areas of Difference

​​​​​​​

Social Understanding and Communciation

Differences in understanding social behaviour and the feelings of others, which informs the development of friendships and relationships.

Flexibility, Information Processing and Understanding

Differences in perception, planning, understanding concepts, predicting, managing transitions, passions for interests, and ability to absorb auditory or spoken information.

Sensory Processing and Integration

Differences in perceiving sensory information. Hypo, hyper, touch, sight, hearing, small, castle, vestibular inner ear and proprioceptive.

The young person is at the heart of every decision. This is evident from the very start of the referral process through to supporting settings to embed person centred strategies that enable autistic young people to succeed in mainstream school settings.

NAS Accreditation Review Team

It was a real privilege to be on the course and have the support my family have received from the team. Thank you.

Parent on Teen Life Course

Thank you all again for the programme. I really enjoyed it and found it so helpful, I'd go as far as to say life changing!!

Parent on Teen Life Course

A really engaging and inspiring session. It was great to see and hear so much passion for inclusion

School leader

X from WTT especially explained Autism perfectly and of all the training I have done over the years, I feel I came away having learnt and understood so much and can't wait to share with my colleagues.

Pre-school SENCO

A huge thank you, our meeting this morning has been an enormous help at refocussing our thinking regards supporting X and how we should move forward. It has also been a valuable reminder at how we need to evidence the smaller steps

Learning Mentor

Training was brilliant and well received, I've already had a thank you from a member of staff and it's heartening to see them reflect and look at how strategies can benefit a whole class.

SENCo

This Autism session is already brilliant. Do all teachers on teacher training get this, they should, as should every teacher or person who comes into contact with young people. This is so informative, accessible and relevant.
