differently to affect a better outcome.
Watching the children on this DVD
will help them to recognize and hold
a picture in their mind of successful
social exchanges. This can help them
come closer to duplicating it fluidly
in their own personal interactions.

Best when viewed by an entire class,

advice for all, stimulates discussions
that touch upon the many unwritten
rules and routines of middle school,
and offers tips on how students can
handle the many new and complex
situations that commonly arise.
Real-life situations are reenacted
along with strategies that can be
used to improve organizational,
academic, and social skills. Included
are exclusive “What They’re
Thinking” Insight Windows.”.


Talking Teenagers
Boushey, A
Living with ASD: Adolescence
and Beyond
Autism Ontario
Talking Teenagers covers everyday
topics and explores the challenges
of parenting across the spectrum
during the teenage years. Parents
will come away with a sense
of empowerment and feeling
that they are not alone, while
professionals will gain a valuable
and compassionate insight into the
world of parenting a teenager on the
autism spectrum.
This adult manual is the result of a
collaborative effort of individuals
with ASD, parents, and professionals
working in the autism field. It covers
a gamut of topics addressing the
basic question of “what is autism?”
to complex issues such as sexuality,
dual diagnosis, transitions, future
planning, and Living options. It
depicts a panoramic picture of
the needs and challenges of adults
with ASD vis-à-vis the resources
and service delivery infrastructure
available in their communities. Most
importantly, it also tells stories of

and work with them, and by the

the book offers an easy-to-read,
explicit program for teaching
children with special needs the skills
that will help them progress toward
Living as independently and happily
as possible in the community
Comic Strip Conversations
Gray, C

Carol Gray combines stick-figures
with “conversation symbols” to
illustrate what people say and think
during conversations. Showing what
people are thinking reinforces that
others have independent thoughts
- a concept spectrum children don’t
intuitively understand. Children
can also recognize that, although
people say one thing, they may think
something quite different - another
concept foreign to “concretethinking” children. Children can
draw their own “comic strips” to
show what they are thinking and
feeling about events or people.
Different colors can represent
different states of mind. These
deceptively simple comic strips can
reveal as well as convey quite a lot of
substantive information.
Adolescence

S.T.A.R.S.
Heighway, SM

Marquette, J

Autism-Asperger’s & Sexuality
Newport, J

Asperger’s. The author clearly has
an intimate knowledge of children
like Seb and the way she describes
his feelings and actions will strike
chords with parents, social workers,
care workers and teachers...I think
that it could be useful for schools
where staff could use it in class as
a vehicle for exploring diversity
and difference. It could also be
reassuring for some families trying
to understand the dilemmas of
Living with Asperger’s.’
Autism-Asperger's & Sexuality is a
groundbreaking, personal look at the

As an educational advocate,
Rebecca Moyes knows that many
parents struggle with designing an
individualized education program
(IEP) that addresses the special needs
of their child. This book demystifies
special education laws so parents
can understand their legal rights and
the rights of their children, including
the development of 504 Service
Agreements, getting the most out of
IEPs, and more. Written especially
for those dealing with autism and
Asperger’s Syndrome, this book also
tackles important issues that will
come up during your child’s early
school experience, such as developing
social skills, addressing challenging
behaviors, encouraging self-esteem,
and dealing with teasing and bullying.
Make school a positive experience for
your child!

pants on in public" in order to stop
his embarrassing behaviors. But the
summer Catherine meets Jason, a
