My son was recently diagnosed with Aspergers so I purchased many books on the subject to better help him. This book by far offers the most practical solutions to everyday school issues. Reading about theories and studies is helpful up to a point but as a parent I needed hands on solutions to common problems and this book provided many options that have worked for my son. - Verified Buyer - R.S. This is an incredible book, full of practical suggestions designed to reduce the angst and strife of school life for children on the Autism spectrum. It also has an assortment of ready-to-use forms/templates that we were able to put to immediate use to allay some of our child's fears--changes in routine, for instance--in school. It's been written in an easy, lucid style, and is an absolute page-turner. It is so insightful that certain passages are bound to resonate with the reader's own personal case: I know that in our own case, we came across several that caused us to break out in gooseflesh. If you have a child on the spectrum, who has issues in school, and you can only afford one book, make it this one. - Verified Buyer - Ralston. T.
