DESCRIPTION:
Listening to this book will change the life of your child and the lives of people on the autistic spectrum that your child meets now and in the future.. You might compare and contrast how the child in this book is similar or different from a person you know on the spectrum. This book provides wonderful opportunities to discuss how to be a friend of a child with autism. Helping children understand autism at a young age is powerful. The simple action plan at the conclusion of the book will help give guidance to a child who wants to be a friend of someone on the autistic spectrum. This book teaches, from a child's perspective, the typical traits that many people with autism share. Encourage discussions of how you or people you love might be like the child in this book. I often see misinformation about autism and well-meaning, but misguided, attempts to interact with people on the spectrum. Does your child have a friend, family member, or classmate who has autism? Would you like your child or the children in your classroom to understand more about autism? Are you looking for an engaging way to start a dialogue about autism? This book uses a simple ABC format to teach about autism. As a pediatric physical therapist, I work with many children on the spectrum. I believe knowledge helps break down barriers and encourages kindness and patience
A Customer said Great book about Autism. Everyone could use an inside perspective of a child on the spectrum. This is a great way to help children understand what their friend, family member or classmate is doing. A wonderful way to show a child with Autism they are not alone. This book would make a nice addition to your personal library or libraries at your child's school, daycare center, church, or pediatrician's waiting room.. This is an excellent book for family Kathleen C. This is an excellent book for family, friends and other adults to use to to help children understand why an Autistic child acts the way they do. The engaging art work and simple, direct language are well suited for young children. This book fills a real communication need for siblings of Autistic children.. Everybody Should Read This! Lil' MoDean This is a terrific book! While it is geared towards children, anyone who wants a little insight into the world of autism will enjoy this informative and easy read. If you know someone whose family is affected by autism, you'll appreciate learning about a few of the issues they face everyday. As the favorite aunt of an incredible young man with autism and a service provider in this field, I plan to share this book with as many people as possible. Thanks to the author and all responsible!
