Empowering and practical, this guide is the perfect companion for parents who are finding it difficult to tell their children about their autism diagnosis. It provides a realistic yet uplifting approach to autism, treating it not as a disability but as a difference.
Not telling children about their autism diagnosis can have a significant negative impact on their mental health; by equipping parents with a language of positivity around autism, the book will make a difference to many children on the spectrum. It advises on how and when to talk to autistic children with both high and low care needs, and provides guidance on supporting children’s relationships with peers at school, as well as how to broach the conversation with the child’s siblings.
Concise and easy to read, The Little Book of Autism FAQs answers parents’ questions with accessible language, preparing them to approach this difficult conversation in a constructive manner.

    I was looking for a book on autism that wasn't too focused on the downsides of this condition.

    Something I could share with my autistic son (10 years old) to help him understand himself better.

    This is just what I was looking for!

    Most autism books I've found tend to have a lot of content on the downsides of autism, which is fine, but probably not what a newly diagnosed child wants to hear.

    This is positive without overdoing it and going on about superpowers and stuff like that.

    It does include some of the negative issues that can occur with autism but it's done in a nice way.

    Highly recommended for parents and children with autism alike.

    Found this book really insightful and read it all in one night. I liked how the questions I want to.ask my daughter were answered by children with autism themselves so you get a better understanding of how to explain autism to your child.

    My six year old son was diagnosed with autism a little over a year ago. All the forms that I have filled out have always read quite negatively but I've come away feeling completely empowered and positive after reading this book.

    I would recommend it to everyone, not just people with an autistic person in their life, because it's a great tool for understanding. It was good to read Q&As from people with autism, I've noted all of the books and YouTube videos to pick up and watch and I feel totally equipped to have the conversation with my son now.

    This was a complimentary copy courtesy of netgalley - thank you

    This was of interest as I have an autistic nephew

    A great little book - lots of interesting information, perceptions of autism and how to deal with the initial awkwardness

    Also, I feel it gets the conversation going and blasts some perceptions people have generally about the condition
