This gentle picture book about a boy struggling to understand the behaviour of his classmates is written by an author who well understands the challenges and experiences of many children on the autistic spectrum; although autism is not referred to directly in the story, and Henry's difficulty in making friends is one that a great many of us can empathise with. A lovely message of reassurance and friendship at the end make this a perfect book for children anxious about fitting in. Lost and Foundby Oliver Jeffers My Views: It is a perfect teacher provided you are a dull student.This is book is about getting well along with people, that is how you can improve your relationship with them, how you can understand their attitude, how you can understand their personality, and how to overcome the problem they face and need someone to help them. If somebody has an attitude for seeking tension or problem, and he feels that everyone ignores him, he will try to attract everyone’s attention. People keep highlighting your weaknesses or problems but don’t get bogged down by this, ignore it, swallow it, digest it and silently improve upon it. Don’t let yourself go into a shell because of this, overcome this weakness or problem. If people are not happy with you, or ignore you, seek answers from them why they do it, what is the reason, what do I do that I don’t get ignored. People have a tendency to react sharply if your weakness is highlighted, like if somebody says your body has a bad odor, people, friends around you will start ignoring you, even if they are not getting bad smell at all. More happens on preception and listening than actual experience. Meanwhile, the school bully has the dog jinni and grants himself wishes. He tries to use magic on others and the Solar Sisters beat him and the dog jinni is turned into an ordinary dog.
