Designed for children with high-functioning autism or Asperger's Syndrome, this workbook offers an approach for the child to learn more about himself. Faherty asks the child to react to various subjects, offering alternatives for the child to select. Features a special binding to allow photocopying.
As a parent to a 10 year old with Asperger's, I found this book very helpful for both my son and myself. The book is laid out like a workbook where the reader answers questions about him/herself. It helps define differences and gives the reader ways to understand and engage those differences. The book gave my son the opportunity to share his thoughts about what makes him unique and gave him ways of addressing his uniqueness in relation to those around him.
This is a great book and helps in understanding what an Asperger person feels and how they tick. I gave it to my son's teacher and she thought it was excellent! I am purchasing one for each of his teachers next year!
