Opis

The "A" Word: Autism is both a guidebook and memoir, full of practical advice for parents and caregivers of Autistic children, written by a former double master degreed therapist and teacher of children on the spectrum. Her quest for a cure began when her own son became diagnosed with Autism six years ago. Non-verbal until the age of six, Joshua is now speaking, has stopped hand flapping and obsessing in a variety of ways. A leading Autism doctor recently told her that he would classify Joshua as mildly Autistic versus the previous diagnosis of severe. Ms. Rosenblum shares what contributed to his success, as well as many humorous and heartfelt stories that will make you both laugh and cry, but mostly will empower you to move through the jungle of Autism, and to eventually ride the Autism roller coaster with ease.
