"What I teach my students are the clinical aspects of Asperger’s in terms of diagnosis, traits and behaviors. These books give them a view into how that translates into day to day life at home and in school."
"What these book lack in scholarly material they more than make up for in practical applications for parents and teachers who are dealing with Autism every day."
"These books emphasize the importance of parents forging partnerships with educators and schools to promote the best outcomes for their child…and that is refreshing."
"I have a goal to work with Autistic children and after having read the books I now know I have to work with the parents as well to assure a child succeeds."
"I use to think the goal was to make an autistic person more ‘normal’…now I realize that the goal is to help them succeed being just who they are."
"When the lights go out and the classroom door is locked at the end of the day, my students will have another part of their day at home. The more I know about that time, the better prepared I can be to help them during the precious time I spend with them."
"Placed in the ‘new diagnosis section for Autism’ at the UC Davis Mind Institute, these books give parents peace in understanding that this is not necessarily a lifetime of challenge. They have a special child with particular needs that they can provide for, along with the help of the school system and professionals who are there."
"We know fairly well what works with children on the spectrum, it is important to gain the trust of parents in order to assure our techniques and strategies are supported on a daily basis."
"I was reeling with a diagnosis of Asperger’s for my son. I had no idea where to start in order to help him. These books gave me a place to start and more importantly, hope that this was not an impossible task. "
"So many things in these books resonated with me in terms what we were experiencing as a family. Now I had some real life strategies that maybe could help. I needed to have something to work on, and now I did."
"I really appreciated that after reading these books I felt the freedom to do what was best for my child and what was best for our family based on our needs."
