Customer Reviews
Highly useful for all involved with children with autism
This is one of the most accessible books on autism in young chidlren and is also remarkably informative and useful. The book is divived usefully into sections on autism, assessment, implications for intervention, approaches, developing a curriculum and managing behaviour. There is also an easy to use checklist which can be discussed between practicioners and parents. As a speech and language therapist working with pre-school and school age chidlren with autism, I have found this very useful and have recommended it to a range of colleagues. It is also inexpensive and contains a useful index and bibliography.
