Currently where i'm at in the novel of The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night-Time Christopher reveals his surprising memory skills and how is memory is so great that it is like a video player. He shares how he can roll his memory back to any point in the past time which he relates to a dvd in the sense that he can remember any exact time in the past just like how a DvD can rewind back to any past time in the movie. Among this special ability of Christopher's there are also many special needs that christopher has as well. One of Christopher's special problems is his complete disgust for the colors yellow and brown. The reason for Christopher's disgust of the color yellow is because there are many food items of the color yellow that make him feel sick and catch a fever such as custard, bananas, sweet corn, and also yellow flowers. The reason Christopher doesn't like the color brown is because its the color of dirt, poo, and gravy which are all things that he hates as well. The following events that i have shared with you from the novel display many weird and strange characteristics that autistic people posses that are some times hard to understand for people who do not have the disorder. Autistic people just have a little different way of living their life compared to an average person because they are socially inept of many social skills an average person posses that they do not which makes it very hard for them.
