This book was really helpful, because my son who is 16 and I read it together. I asked him if he really felt that way, as it was described in the book. It gave him the words to simply add to the description and agree, or say not me. I found it very educational for me and he enjoyed the communication tool, as well. I am going to share the info, for teachers, with his new teachers for 10th grade.
This simple book has helped explain to family, friends and teacher the way to connect with an aspergers child. To the very intelligent nine year old with aspergers it has been a great help in his own understanding and, a relief that communication with those who have read it has improved.
This book/guide is truly excellent. Extremely helpful when talking to others about Asperger's. It has an excellent part in the back on tips for the teachers. My son's teachers has actually read this and we are using to update his IEP for next year. Great book!
