About this product

Product Information

'A wise SatNav for what is often a bewildering, or even scary, zone of parenting. The book offers real-world, road-tested, child-first and family-friendly advice; while also highlighting the twin truths that autism is not a tragedy, and that adaptation and acceptance are not resignation' David Mitchell, bestselling author and co-translator of The Reason I Jump 'A must-read for anyone with an autistic child in their life' Laura James, author of Odd Girl Out Written by Jessie Hewitson, an award-winning journalist at The Times, Autism is the book she wishes she had read when her son was first given the diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder. It combines her own experiences with tips from autistic adults, other parents - including author David Mitchell - as well as advice from autism professionals and academics such as Professor Simon Baron-Cohen. Autism looks at the condition as a difference rather than a disorder and includes guidance on: What to do if you think your child is autistic How to understand and support your child at school and at home Mental health and autism The differences between autistic girls and boys 'It is incredibly useful and informative, full of new research and interviews that put right an awful lot of misinformation. I cannot recommend this highly enough' The Sun 'Exceptionally useful and informative' Uta Frith, Emeritus Professor of Cognitive Development, UCL

  • Perfect choice, buy it!!

    I am waiting to have my daughter diagnosed and I thought it would be a good idea to buy a book about Autism. I made the right choice!..the author is amazing, the way she has written the book made me feel not so panicky and worried, and how to handle certain situations. A brilliant read, every parent who thinks their child may be autistic or has just found out that their child is a Autistic person should read this 😀

  • A must read book for anyone who knows an autistic child

    It's written in laymans terms and covers all the difficulties that autistic children experience. It explains the reasons for the child's behaviour and gives advice on how to cope with problems. It's a very optimistic book and I found it both interesting and helpful.
