"Talk, Talk, Sweet Charlotte" presents a unique and often candid
investigation of certain psychological, emotional, and social
considerations typically associated with autism. It describes the
relationship that was built over a two year period when the author
worked as a one on one aide with Charlotte Tate, a junior high
student who has autism. Charlotte was non-verbal and very
aggressive toward principals, vice principals, teachers, aides, and
other students. Her behaviors had prevented her from participating
in a regular classroom environment. The author traces his work with
Charlotte and highlights qualities relating to belief, courage, and
caring in various forms. The transformation of Charlotte from "one
of the toughest kids to work with" to a student who has a "thirst
for knowledge" is an inspirational, amazing story.
