A few years back, the mother of a young autistic boy reached out to tell me that her son died and that her last good memory with him was reading our book, I am Albert Einstein, which is all about being different. Needless to say, we surprised
her at her son’s school, sending signed copies, etc — but today we get to do one better. On today’s episode of Xavier Riddle and the Secret Museum, we’re featuring Temple Grandin. In that episode, we hid a very special easter egg: the boy, CJ, who now gets to live on forever.
It’s obviously meaningful to us, to the mom, and to anyone out there who needs the reminder that being different is a beautiful thing. To everyone marking #AutismAwarenessMonth, we see you. Love you, CJ. #AutismAcceptanceMonth
