ASD and Me: Learning About Autism Spectrum Disorder

About this book

IMPROVED & UPDATED! Back in 2010 author Teresa DeMars went looking for a book to explain autism to her son. When she couldnt find one that fit the characteristics of his autism she wrote ASD and Me. Written for kids diagnosed with Aspergers Syndrome PDD-NOS or autism parents will appreciate the way this heartwarming childrens picture book will help them explain Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) to their child on the spectrum. ASD and Me is written from the point of view of Eli a seven-year-old boy who has ASD. Through the story Eli explains how he was diagnosed and how ASD affects the way he thinks and interprets the world around him. He also talks about some of the social and life skills he has learned that help him fit in with others. The story concludes with some of the interests and activities Eli shares with other children. ASD and Me is a great book to help introduce the subject of autism to siblings classmates extended family and to those on the spectrum.
