A difficult task made easier!
I am so thankful that I chose this book over others that deal with toilet training. I did not realize how teaching someone on the spectrum how to use the potty is very different in many ways, than someone who's not. This book deals with those issues. It brings to ...

The New Social Story Book : Illustrated Edition

Carol Gray

TERRIFIC Book!
Great book but I am upset with Amazon.com. Please remember that when you are just simply "Browsing" a product and try to merely put in your cart or saved box they will charge you. Another problem with this particular book is that it was supposed to come as a set with ...

No More Meltdowns: Positive Strategies for Managing and Preventing Out-Of-Control Behavior

Jed Baker

Future Horizons, 2008

Thanks for the book!
What I liked about Dr. Baker's book is how sympathetic he sounds to those of us who deal daily with children with emotional and cognitive disorders or just plain difficulties. At the same time, he doesn't let us off the hook nor lull us into thinking that our responses ...

Asperger's and Girls

Tony Attwood, Temple Grandin, ...

Future Horizons, 2006

Good for girls
Many books written about disability are often taken from or about boys experiences,and girls have not yet got on the radar in many areas. I speak from experience as I have a daughter with AS. She is now 22 y.o and I have just discovered this. Not through lack of ...

Look at the child, not the child's label.
