Overview

This picture book assists children on the autism spectrum, and any child for that matter, in examining their black-and-white thinking in order to begin to think more flexibly - rainbow thinking. Using repeated rhymes and illustrations, the child begins to recognise that the more flexible his thinking is, the better he is able to cope with the challenges that life inevitably brings, ultimately, leading to fewer tantrums and meltdowns.

This book is an essential tool for all educators and parents needing to address a child's inability to be flexible. The simple structure of providing examples of black-and-white thinking along with an example of 'rainbow thinking' provides a useful framework for helping kids begin to make this important shift in their daily lives. -- Diane Adreon Center for Autism and Related Disabilities
