Temple Grandin : How the Girl who Loved Cows Embraced Autism and Changed the World by Sy Montgomery

What a wonderful biography of a woman who has done so much to help people understand animals and autism.  Most of us know someone who has some form of autism.  We hear a lot about it in schools.  I loved the way the book described the unique way that Temple saw the world and how she went about helping her beloved animals.  This story does talk about the slaughtering of the animals that we use for food (cows, pigs, chickens).  Some of it is hard to read, but I think its important to know where your food comes from.
