The Autism Discussion Page on Facebook is my most favorite 'go to' resource of all things autism related. It shares in depth knowledge gathered from being in the field for many years. Highly recommended to add to your library of autism related books. In fact it should be the start of your library: the compassionate writing by Bill Nason is encouraging for parents, teachers and other professionals and answers all questions you could possibly have regarding dealing with kids on the spectrum, including their anxieties and sensory issues. Understanding anxiety seemingly inherent with autism has been made easy through the wise words of Bill Nason. Thanks Bill for sharing your expertise through your books so we do understand our ASD kid better. No wonder the Autism Discussion Facebook page has over 60000 followers worldwide and counting. It hands us the tools for parenting our ASD kid dealing with anxiety and sensory issues, even in the school environment.
I am a speech-language pathologist specializing in autism. Bill nason is a genius. I've been following him on FB for a loooong time (you should, too. Genius) and I'm so thrilled to finally have a book as a quick and easy reference for my families!
Excellent book on Autism! As a busy mother of an Autistic child I appreciate a book that offers concise, pertinent information on a ton of different subjects. So many times as a parent of an Autistic child you feel under prepared for life's challenges but this book offers so many supportive strategies that I can see being used by parents, teachers and anyone wanting to help our kiddo's feel "safe, accepted, and competent".
Thank you so much Bill Nason for writing a reference book that is well organized, provides valuable information and step by step solutions to common problems, and a well laid out pictorial for use with our autistic grandson . The book is so easy to read and understand. It is not full of over-my-head medical terms and procedures, but in very straightforward and easy to understand wording. I feel as if I'm listening to a very wise and trusted friend.Much of the information is thought provoking as he explains what is going through an autistic person's world and helps the reader to understand those frustrations and confusions that lead to meltdowns. Since reading the book, I've been able to step back and recognize signs of imminent meltdowns and have succeeded more than not in preventing them. I can not recommend this high enough! Anyone who knows or works with autistic people should own this book.
As a parent of a child on the autism spectrum I have taken over 2000 hours of autism training classes and have bought countless books and DVDs on autism intervention. Without a doubt, "The Autism Discussion Page" books are some of the best autism education/intervention resources available. These books are a must have resource for parents/caregivers, teachers/school administrators, therapists, psychologists, social workers, and any other individuals who interact with and support children on the autism spectrum. Parents, I highly recommend you buy a set for the school team and use it as a tool to communicate key needs throughout the school year.
As a para educator working with students who have autism, I highly recommend this book as well as its companion book. Nason presents the material in an easy to understand way that is practical, yet also touches on the theory behind the practice. I especially like that Nason's approach is highly respectful of people with autism. Most importantly, I have seen the suggestions put forth in this book make a huge difference in the lives of students on the autistic spectrum.
These are great informative and relatable books for teachers and parents of special needs kids. As a former teacher and now a parent of a special needs child, these are my "go to" books for insight to understanding the many different challenges to raising my son. Thank you to Bill for sharing your many experiences and sharing your expertise. You really "get" our kids and you are right on point.
Both this and Bill's other book ("The Autism Discussion Page on the Core Challenges of Autism...") are the best books for doing research on your child's behaviors, challenges, and other needs. His Autism Discussion Page on Facebook is very detailed with all of the articles from these books, along with the opportunity to speak with him and other parents with children on the spectrum or with any special challenges. The books are full of very helpful and useful information, easy-to-read and follow, and you don't have to read the books from beginning to end. They are sectioned off with appropriate categories, so you can skip around and read on something specific. I've brought both books to my son's IEP meetings to help find strategies and techniques to make his days more successful. I would be lost without these books!
