Overview
Ellen Notbohm and Veronica Zysk are authors who know how to take their own advice. Winner of Learning Magazine's Teachers’ Choice Award, the first edition of 1001 Great Ideas has been a treasured resource in the autism community since 2004. Now, in this expanded edition, Ellen Notbohm (best-selling author of the revolutionary book Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew) and Veronica Zysk (award-winning author and editor of Autism Asperger's Digest magazine) present parents and educators with over 1800 ideas—try-it-now tips, eye-opening advice, and grassroots strategies. More than 600 fresh ideas join tried and true tactics from the original edition, while many ideas pick up where the first edition left off, offering modifications for older kids, honing in on Asperger’s challenges, and enhancing already-effective ways to help your child or student achieve success at home, in school, and in the community. It helps you quickly find solutions, explanations, and strategies that speak to the variety of developmental levels, learning styles, and abilities inherent in children with autism or Asperger’s.

Reviews
""Genuine, commonsense advice that all parents and educators can quickly and easily use!"" -- Temple Grandin, PhD, autism expert and self-advocate, and author of Thinking in Pictures and The Way I See It: A Personal Look at Autism and Asperger's ""I was amazed at the number and quality of ideas, and strongly recommend that parents read and apply the advice. I discovered some really good ideas!"" -- Tony Attwood, PhD, author of The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome ""I'm impressed by the range and practicality of the ideas, all of them great, as promised. And I'm struck by the many ways in which the ideas not only address early childhood through the school years, but also help prepare children for the transition to adulthood and beyond."" -- Wendela Whitcomb Marsh, MA, RSD, author of Recognizing Autism in Women and Girls and Independent Living While Autistic ""Comprehensive and thorough, (with) a personal and relatable aspect that parents and those who care for individuals on the spectrum will appreciate."" -- The Eric Hoffer Book Award
