Jody's brother Josh has autism. Jody's irreverent personality comes through as she narrates this story, giving readers a picture of autism and how she can be relied on to “translate” for her brother. When Great Aunt Tilda comes for a rare visit, Jody helps her aunt to understand Josh's behavior and navigate his quirks, likes and dislikes. She helps her brother get used to a new person in the house. Jody also does her best to steal her Aunt's attention and gets her to play games Jody usually can't play because her brother doesn't like them. Whimsical, full-color illustrations make the story lively and bring to light the typical dynamics that can occur between siblings when one has autism and the other doesn't. PLAYING BY THE RULES is a supportive story for other siblings who take on responsibility for their brother or sister with special needs and don't get as much attention that they'd like. The story also shows how exchanging pictures (PECS) can be a successful alternative mode of communication for a child with autism.
