I have read through dozens of books pertaining to Autism and within this one book I found more useful information than anywhere else. This book is not just for parents and therapists, but also for family members adjusting to life with a child who has Autism. It helps you get inside the head of a child with Autism, and understand the struggles and pain these children face every single day.
The ten things the author lays out are simple, but essential in understanding and helping the child. She provides examples in terms that people without Autism can relate to in order to better understand certain behaviors. The recovery process is different for every child, but the information in this book will without a doubt help any family get on the road. Open your heart and read this book to really understand. |

This is by far the best resource for learning to understand and work with a child diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. I am a pediatric occupational therapist and I have worked with children on this spectrum for over 23 years. I also have a 5 year old son diagnosed with ASD. I have read many books and attended many conferences on this disorder and this book truly illuminates the core issues of these children. Ms. Notbohm describes the important issues in a clear and easy to understand way and provides examples and practical ideas to help deal with these issues. This book has the potential to change the lives of these children and their caregivers as it will increase understanding-with understanding comes acceptance and with acceptance these children can blossom and show the amazing gifts they have locked inside.
This book should be required reading of any student who will be involved in the care of these children and it should definitely be on the nightstand of every parent, caregiver, teacher, aide, bus driver, administrator, etc. of these children! |

Buy this book for everyone who interacts with your child, including moms, dads, grandparents, brothers, sisters, friends, teachers/special education service providers, babysitters, pediatricians, and the next person you meet whose child is newly diagnosed with ASD...
This is the book I wish I'd had when our son was diagnosed with ASD years ago. I am on my second reading... There is so much info packed in there - I laughed and cried, and mostly didn't want the book to end. An important book that will make a positive difference in the lives of people living with autism. |

I found this book to be wonderful! As a mother of a 13 year old boy with Autism and a public school elementary teacher; I found the information well written and offered an insight into the world of children with Autism! I highly recommend this book and have been passing on my copy to everyone who cares about my son! |

I can't say enough about this book. I have made it required reading in my family. My son's Grandpa is showing definite signs of having read it! It's a quick, easy read and chock full of amazing information. I especially love the analogy of imagining yourself trying to do your job while riding a rollercoaster: That's what sensory issues can be like daily for a child w/ autism. If you read any book this year, make it this one. Then hand it over to anyone and everyone your child has contact with. Then ask them for it back and read it again. |

I could not put this one down. The Autism Spectrum is so diverse and difficult to understand. This book allows one to get into the mind of a child with Autism and get a grasp on how he/she perceives the world around them. Things we say and do on a regular basis, are perceived very differently to someone with Autism for a variety of reasons which this book covers. Activities that we may enjoy, sometimes, are simply too much, even nausiating at times for someone with Autism.
These "Ten Things" that the book mentions, really opens ones eyes to a whole different way of understanding and interacting with an individual with Autism. It really showed me better ways to communicate with them. For anyone at all that has or is working with someone on the spectrum, you need to read this book. It will help you to be more sensitive and them better. Thank you for this book! |

As a parent with a child on the spectrum, I found this a wonderful resource. I loved Notbohm's clear and concise language and her insightful observations are on target. It was as informative as it was positive and empowering. And I've found that building strategies around her observations actually work! Highly recommended, especially if you need to see the positive in raising a child on the spectrum. |

After rivers of tears since recieving our daughter's diagnosis,Ellen's book was like sun through the clouds shining a new light on our perspective. Ten Things is a needed reminder of all the proactive steps a parent can take while remembering that Autism is not the whole child but only a part of the path we are walking together. Ellen is refreshingly funny while still being informative and enlightening.
I have since gone out and bought this book for our daughter's behavior therapist and day care provider and I believe anyone working with special needs children should read this book. |
