Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Framed with both humour and compassion, the book defines the top ten characteristics that illuminate the minds and hearts of children with autism. Ellen's personal experiences as a parent, an autism columnist, and a contributor to numerous parenting magazines coalesce to create a guide for all who come in contact with a child on the autism spectrum.

Absolutely a must-read for any parent, teacher or relative of a child with autism (including Asperger's Syndrome). Helps you get out of the emotional and mental storm that can accompany dealing with your child, and instead make order in your thoughts, priorities and actions. Empowers you to replace irrelevent cliches with effective intervention.

It really opens your eyes to the daily struggles of every day life with autism...the best book on how to help rather than hinder a child with autism
Rated by buyers -
This is a short book that helps understanding your child's feelings and concerns and how to deal with them (it does not break down the different ASDs). The book is written as if your child is speaking to you, which makes it more personal. It has 10 short main points from the child's view, then explains every point more detailed in the second part of the book. This book might help people who are involved with your child, but who don't want to read complicated books on autistic spectrum disorders. I have read many other books on ASDs, but I keep looking into this one to remind myself to be patient and understanding (I especially like points #7 and 10, to focus on the child's strengths and to love him/her unconditionally). If you already know a lot about ASDs, then you probably won't get a lot of new information from this book, but it may help you understand and respond to the child better -- it helped me focus on my child's feelings better than reading a clinical book about ASDs. If you are new to ASDs, then this book is definately helpful, but you might still want to read additional clinical info books about the different ASDs and personal stories written by people with an ASD (like "Born on a Blue Day").
