The books linked below are ones my son and I read together. Books that he identified with and that he enjoyed. There are many other books which we did not get around to reading or buying so I have listed links of recommendations from other sources too. I am not affiliated with Amazon or any of the organisations or services on this site they are purely here to assist parents in finding resources that I found useful and I have provided a comment or review where we have used the resource.
