One of the books that I recommend for anyone with an Aspie in their life is Tony Attwood's Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome.

From his book, here are some key characteristics:

*Children with Asperger's Syndrome have the following Characteristics:

* delayed social maturity and social reasoning
* immature empathy
* difficulty making friends and often teased by other children
* difficulty with the communication and control of emotion
* unusual language abilities that include advanced vocabulary and syntax but delayed conversation skills, unusual prosody and tendency to be pedantic
* a fascination with a topic that is unusual in intensity or focus
* difficulty maintaining attention in class
* an unusual profile of learning abilities
* a need for assistance with some self-help and organization skills
* clumsiness in terms of gait or coordination
* sensitivity to specific sounds, aromas, textures or touch
