Acerca de esta escucha

Like many others on the autism spectrum, 20-something stand-up comic Michael McCreary has been told by more than a few well-meaning folks that he doesn’t “look” autistic. But, as he’s quick to point out in this memoir, autism “looks” different for just about everyone with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Diagnosed with ASD at age five, McCreary got hit with the performance bug not much later. During a difficult time in junior high, he started journaling, eventually turning his pain into something empowering - and funny. He scored his first stand-up gig at age 14 and hasn't looked back.

This unique and hilarious #OwnVoices memoir breaks down what it’s like to live with autism for readers on and off the spectrum. Funny, You Don’t Look Autistic is an invaluable and compelling listen for young readers with ASD looking for voices to relate to as well as for listeners hoping to broaden their understanding of ASD.

This is a good one! I really appreciate the light hearted perspective of someone with ASD. Educational, compassionate and entertaining all in one book! Excited to share with my teen son and hope to see your show. Thank you!

So So Good!!!

I have been following the Facebook page for Funny, You Don't Look Autistic for the memes before I realized it was the name of Michael McCreary's book. I recently found out my kid is on the spectrum so it really helped hearing the experience from an adult with ASD. It was really entertaining too. I'm going to go listen to his stand up.

Hilarious and Insightful

My 16 year-old son also had ASD, and we first heard Mike perform at an Asperger Experts workshop. I couldn’t spend my audible credit fast enough last night and we started listening today on the long drive home from school. Lots of laugh out loud moments so far and the kids are begging to listen to more. Thanks for being a voice (and several characters) for the ASD community!

Can’t wait to hear more from this talent.

other than the stuff about temple Grandin and using the word " aspie" I thought it was pretty good. the ending broke my heart though. as an autistic and parent of an autistic kid , the ending is so sad. I almost broke ďown and cried

good book

My primary language is spanish, Michael talks very well, very easy to understand (if you know english, obviously) the story, comments, explanations aren't complicated to understand too, it's easy to have empathy with him.
I love your mother, hated Harold and happy to know about your path is quite inspirational to hear

not complicated to understand

Succeeds in challenging the stereotype of what most NTs may imagine what people with a spectrum disorder are" like." That is, there is none..."they" are just as different as neurotypicals, classified for certain traits, need for routine, communication issues ..but in the end Mc Creary shows the colors of the spectrum are as varied and nuanced as NT personality types. Hollywood should stop concentrating on the autistic savants and work harder to represent a more authentic version of those on the spectrum. Mc Creary's read was a bit too fast, raspy and edgy for my taste but I guess that's just me and my sensitive ears

Colors of the spectrum

Michael McCreary did a fantastic job of introducing us to the world of Autistic life. It seems he had a very “normal” life although he was diagnosed Autistic. His experiences were very similar to most. His brilliance played an important part in his decisions and participation in his “normal” life. And what a great life he has

Entertaining and Eye Opening

We listened to this book in the car as a family. My 16 year old son is autistic and he said there was a lot he could relate to. My daughter said it helped her to understand what living with ASD can be like. Michael McCreary is not only funny, but a really helpful advocate for the autism community. We liked his voice and he did a really good job narrating his own book. When this pandemic is over, we would love to be able to make a trip to Toronto to see Michael perform live.

Excellent!

I'm not neurotypical (I have ADHD) but I'm not ASD either. My son and his mother (my ex-wife) are both ASD. This book gave me a lot of insights into the way they think and act.

While every person is an individual, it is very useful to hear from someone with some of the same experiences as my family and numerous friends with ASD.

Thank you so much Michael. Keep being you.

Amazing insights for an ADHD guy
