Jude Welton once again has taken a complex issue and made it easy to understand. It embraces difference to make a difference…This format will allow anyone who reads it to have a greater understanding of autism and how to help. A must read for anyone who knows someone with autism.
Clear, concise, and compassionate, Can I Tell You About Autism is a comprehensive introduction to autism, and a great springboard for parents and teachers to use to explore autism with younger children.
This book is very welcome as it adds to the literature on autism diagnosis and provides a framework to use when discussing the diagnosis of autism with a child…It could also be used the help other children – brothers and sisters or classmates, to understand autism.
