Autistic? How Silly Is That!

This is a great picture storybook that over-exaggerates the 'tistics' of almost everything we do and are. For both parents and children who are getting this diagnosis for the first time, it does definitely take the "sting" out of the words and replaces it with a spontaneous smile. Children and parents will easily get the message that there are no real labels for anything, and at the same time there are labels for everything, if we want them! This is a beautifully illustrated and well-written book that can be used one-on-one or in groups with children or at parent information meetings by a seminar facilitator." - Susan N. Schriber Orloff, OTR/L, CEO/Executive Director, Children's Special Services, LLC "This sweet and endearing book offers youngsters a fresh perspective on autism, by helping them understand that autism is just one small facet of who they are!" - Rebecca Moyes, MEd, author of Visual Techniques for Developing Social Skills and Building Sensory Friendly Classrooms, and mother of a young man with Asperger's Syndrome
