MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK

Main description:

Travels With My Teddy Bear is the fascinating record of Debra Schiman's journeys, undertaken with her beloved teddy Bearsac, through the familiar cities of Europe and regions as remote as China and Mongolia. It is both a travelogue that expounds the joys and problems of voyaging through different countries and cultures, and an illustration of the highs and lows of Asperger's Syndrome, a condition characterized by issues with social and communication skills, but also by such strengths as logic, focus and loyalty. In combining the two topics, Schiman demonstrates how our perceptions of people are so often culture-specific, and shows how the challenges particular to travel can affect those whose minds are wired a little differently from the so-called 'norm'.
