Different but Special is a journey of fascinating moments between a boy, Nicholas, and his amazing family. Nicholas was diagnosed on the autism spectrum. Nicholas loves to be alone; he loves cars and books, and he always likes them in a particular way and in a specific order. He has the most infectious laughter and the biggest smile. But Nicholas's older brother sometimes gets frustrated because he is not able to communicate with Nicholas in the way he would like. There are times of chaos and meltdowns, tears and laughter, sadness and happiness. Nicholas's family finds ways to work through these moments through their love for one another--and end up all the stronger for it.
