JOHN BURNS BOOKS

Wind Dancer
Poems for my autistic daughter.

These poems are written from the unique perspective of a parent of an autistic child. Unsentimental and hard hitting, these are poems with a point to make.  Sometimes profound, sometimes sad, frequently funny these poems are aimed at giving the reader an insight into the closed world of autism. They also speak in wider terms about attitudes to people with learning disabilities and mental health problems.
