Product Information
"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 You've never read a book like 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. 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 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 "This is an intimate book, one that brings readers right into an autistic mind." -- Chicago Tribune (Editor's Choice) "Amazing times a million." --Whoopi Goldberg, People " 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.) "Extraordinary, moving, and jeweled with epiphanies." --The Boston Globe "Small but profound . . . [Higashida's] startling, moving insights offer a rare look inside the autistic mind." -- Parade

Advance praise for The Reason I Jump " The Reason I Jump is a wise, beautiful, intimate and courageous explanation of autism as it is lived every day by one remarkable boy. Naoki Higashida takes us 'behind the mirror'-his testimony should be read by parents, teachers, siblings, friends, and anybody who knows and loves an autistic person. I only wish I'd had this book to defend myself when I was Naoki's age." -Tim Page, author of Parallel Play and professor of journalism and music at the University of Southern California "[Higashida] illuminates his autism from within. . . . Anyone struggling to understand autism will be grateful for the book and translation." - Kirkus Reviews, Advance praise for The Reason I Jump " The Reason I Jump is a Rosetta stone. . . . I had to keep reminding myself that the author was a thirteen-year-old boy when he wrote this . . . because the freshness of voice coexists with so much wisdom. 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.) "We have our received ideas, we believe they correspond roughly to the way things are, then a book comes along that simply blows all this so-called knowledge out of the water. This is one of them. . . . An entry into another world." -- Daily Mail (U.K.) "Every page dismantles another preconception about autism. . . . Once you understand how Higashida managed to write this book, you lose your heart to him." -- New Statesman (U.K.) "Astonishing. The Reason I Jump builds one of the strongest bridges yet constructed between the world of autism and the neurotypical world. . . . There are many more questions I'd like to ask Naoki, but the first words I'd say to him are 'thank you.'" -- The Sunday Times (U.K.) "This is a guide to what it feels like to be autistic. . . . In Mitchell and Yoshida's translation, [Higashida] comes across as a thoughtful writer with a lucid simplicity that is both childlike and lyrical. . . . Higashida is living proof of something we should all remember: in every autistic child, however cut off and distant they may outwardly seem, there resides a warm, beating heart." -- Financial Times (U.K.) "Higashida's child's-eye view of autism is as much a winsome work of the imagination as it is a user's manual for parents, carers and teachers. . . . This book gives us autism from the inside, as we have never seen it. . . . [Higashida] offers readers eloquent access into an almost entirely unknown world." -- The Independent (U.K.) "Like millions of parents confronted with autism, Mitchell and his wife found themselves searching for answers and finding few that were satisfactory. Help, when it arrived, came not from some body of research but from the writings of a Japanese schoolboy, Naoki Higashida. The Reason I Jump . . . is a book that acts like a door to another logic, explaining why an autistic child might flap his hands in front of his face, disappear suddenly from home--or jump." -- The Telegraph (U.K.) " The Reason I Jump is a wise, beautiful, intimate and courageous explanation of autism as it is lived every day by one remarkable boy. Naoki Higashida takes us 'behind the mirror'--his testimony should be read by parents, teachers, siblings, friends, and anybody who knows and loves an autistic person. I only wish I'd had this book to defend myself when I was Naoki's age." --Tim Page, author of Parallel Play and professor of journalism and music at the University of Southern California "[Higashida] illuminates his autism from within. . . .

It''s truly moving, eye-opening, incredibly vivid." --Jon Stewart, The Daily Show "Please don''t assume that The Reason I Jump is just another book for the crowded autism shelf. . . . This is an intimate book, one that brings readers right into an autistic mind--what it''s like without boundaries of time, why cues and prompts are necessary, and why it''s so impossible to hold someone else''s hand. Of course, there''s a wide range of behavior here; that''s why ''on the spectrum'' has become such a popular phrase. But by listening to this voice, we can understand its echoes." -- Chicago Tribune (Editor''s Choice) "Amazing times a million." --Whoopi Goldberg, People " The Reason I Jump is a Rosetta stone. . . .

[Naoki Higashida''s] startling, moving insights offer a rare look inside the autistic mind." -- Parade "Surely one of the most remarkable books yet to be featured in these pages . . . With about one in 88 children identified with an autism spectrum disorder, and family, friends, and educators hungry for information, this inspiring book''s continued success seems inevitable." -- Publishers Weekly "We have our received ideas, we believe they correspond roughly to the way things are, then a book comes along that simply blows all this so-called knowledge out of the water.
