5 out of 5 stars A must for everybody   August 11, 2008

Anyone who comes in contact with a person on the autism spectrum should read this book. It is a quick and easy read with the ten characteristics clearly stated and easily understood. The suggestions are concise and to the point. Every teacher should have this as a resource and it should be a mandatory read. Having taught children with autism has been a privilege and reading a parent's perspective has reminded me of that once again.

3 out of 5 stars 10 things is only the start   July 27, 2008
10 Things is an awesome start to help parents and the professionals working with children in the autism spectrum understand the individual behind the symptoms and behaviors. As these children have grown up and begun to talk about their childhoods with the misconceptions and at times emotional abuse they had to endure in order to be "helped" we learn more and more about our biases and errors in interpretation of what we see and hear. This book should be a must read for all parents of newly diagnosed children in the spectrum so that the same mistakes are not made with their children. I am sure the author could have actually come up with 50 or more things, but 10 allows the reader to feel like it is not insurmountable and she does a great job of capturing the essential needs in those 10 "things".

Absolutely a must-read for any parent, teacher or relative of a child with autism (including Asperger's Syndrome). Helps you get out of the emotional and mental storm that can accompany dealing with your child, and instead make order in your thoughts, priorities and actions. Empowers you to replace irrelevent cliches with effective intervention.
