My Take on the Book
Autism is a spectrum disorder that is so misunderstood by many. This book provides a comprehensive look at what autism is, as well as what parents can and should do to support their child.
The book was a treasure trove of resources. The author gives detailed information about autism in general, but also on parenting tips too. The book was insightful and practical and there were many times where I really appreciated the advice, examples and more that were offered to help me beter understand the concepts being shared.
If you have a child with autism or know someone who does, this is a valuable resource that you will not want to pass up!
