Joanne Brayshaw Libri

This introduction is an ideal resource for teachers and family members of a child with autism. In clear language and illustrations, the authors tackle common problems experienced in everyday routines such as eating, sleeping and toileting, as well as aggression and tantrums, compulsions and how to enable better communication.

The manual offers a structured approach to understanding autism and Asperger Syndrome through ten interactive sessions. Each session focuses on a specific topic, encouraging parental participation in exercises and group discussions to deepen understanding. At the end of each session, recommended readings and 'homework' are provided to reinforce the concepts covered, promoting ongoing learning and engagement.
