Julia, a Muppet with autism, makes her debut appearance on Sesame Street. 

“She does things just a little differently, in a…Julia sort of way.”

It’s great that Sesame Street has designed a character with autism. I think the character will help kids understand autism in a better way and encourage acceptance. Adults can try and explain things like autism to a child, but it can be difficult. I grew up with Sesame Street, I’m glad the show is still helping kids learn and grow! Media representation always matters, thank you Sesame Street for still teaching us.
