This new edition sounds an even more resonant call to action, carrying the reader farther into understanding the needs and the potential of every child with autism.

Review :
A Great Book which will change your child's life for the better
This is quite an unusual book. It's not a practical guide to handling day to day issues with Autism, nor is it a dry clinical description of Autism. It's essentially a book promoting a new paradigm, (a whole new outlook) on Autism. It provides you with an understanding of some key positive concepts and then goes on to show how they can be put into practical use on a daily basis.

I feel that this book could be better described with the considerably less catchy title of; Ten concepts which your future happy and successful grown up child with autism needs you to know, understand, believe and "live" now - in order to ensure that the time line works out for the best.

Make no mistake, these aren't ten baby concepts which will only hold true for a small part of your child's life. They're adult ones, mantras for living - and they apply forever.

The book starts with a list of the 10 things which I'll list below because there are no surprises here...
Light bulb!

If you or anyone you know struggles to understand autism...this is the book! When my son was diagnosed Imhad a very hard time understanding what he was going thru...this book turned on the light bulb! It completely changed the way I thought about and cared for my son. Nothing short of life changing! The most important words "Meltdowns are more horrid for me than you" AND "I rely on you. All that I might become won't happen without you as my foundation. Be my advocate, be my guide, love me for who I am, and we'll see how far I can go".

From a paraeducator

The first time I read this book I was floored. In it was everything I had learned from my experiences as a paraeducator working with children who have autism. The fact that it is written in clear language that can be understood. I have made a point of sharing it with as many of my coworkers and classmates and I can get to read it and wish it was required reading for anyone who has anything to do with children, ANY children because most of the points made apply to many other children. The most important part I found is when she says that ALL BEHAVIOR IS COMMUNICATION!! Overall, one of my very favorite books.
