I would recommend it as required reading for all special education teachers …
This is a valuable book to those of us who work with students with Autism Spectrum Disorder. I would recommend it as required reading for all special education teachers and all who work in that realm. The author gives detailed examples of the types of behaviors effecting those with autism and suggestions to mitigate. This area of study needs more information like this.

Great little book for the beginner
Great little book for the beginner. A lot of what is described is based on teaching autistic children on an individual basis. Not too many teachers in a classroom full of kids have the opportunity to implement the ideas offered.

Exceptional Book
This book is a common sense, easy to read, informative book for those working with students who have autism spectrum disorder. I will keep it handy to refer back to when I have a question or need a quick refresher.
