Children and Autism presents seven compelling stories of
children who have triumphed over the challenge of autism.
These are not stories of easy or simple remedies but in
the end in each instance the child is indistinguishable
from their same-age peers. Parents draw hope and
inspiration from these stories while also realizing that
dedication, hard work, and perseverance are key elements
to success. While these seven stories are the heart and
soul of the book, Children and Autism is more than that.
The book opens with a section on what autism and applied
behaviour analysis are. It closes with a comprehensive
resource section that helps parents locate ABA resources,
provides definitions, and offers advice on applying
practices in the home. Children and Autism is also a
celebration of progress in treating autism using ABA.
