"A treasure trove of wisdom... A moving portrait of an endearingly different mind." — Leading National Reviews

What happens when learning is taken out of the classroom? Wondrous success!

In I Have Autism And I Like To Play Bad Tennis, marketing consultant and counselor Debashis Paul provides a beautifully personal, raw, and highly practical window into the life of his late son, Noel. The “I” in the title refers directly to Noel, who was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder at the age of three-and-a-half. Far from being a conventional memoir restricted to a simple retelling, this book is a celebration of life itself, a humble request for inclusivity, and a magnificent guide to maintaining a positive mindset through deep adversity.

The true hallmark of this book is the uncovering of sharp insights and channelizing them into innovative teaching. Noel—who faced acute conventional learning difficulties—learned rapidly when taught numeracy, elementary science, language communication, and social skills through his unique passions: music, swimming, and tennis. Rejecting the intense societal pressure to "play good" and win, Noel proudly declared his love for "bad tennis"—choosing to enjoy the game purely for the love of it, free from the cage of rigid expectations.

Written with rare honesty and a complete refusal to make things look pretty just to force inspiration, Debashis Paul maps out an essential roadmap for parents of both neurodiverse and neurotypical children. He shows how to celebrate daily micro-successes, recalibrate parental ambitions, and move past the caverns of societal prejudice to find a deeply rewarding sense of life fulfillment.
