Autism and Adolescence—the Way I See It

In these helpful pages, Dr. Grandin offers do’s and don’ts, practical strategies, and try-it-now tips, all based on her insider perspective and extensive research. She argues that adolescents on the spectrum must focus on their overlooked strengths to foster their unique contributions to the world. She has packed a wealth of knowledge into this book, which also serves as an excellent reference for the parents, educators, and caregivers of autistic adolescents. Rather than continuing to waste the singular gifts of autistics, Grandin proposes innovative approaches to educating, parenting, employing, and collaborating together. This important book shows why the world needs every kind of mind.
