Yes indeed autism has it's challenges, thankfully my little guy is happy and sweet 95% of the time. That is more than I can say for my 12 year-old :)Gigi McAllisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18090843830125090541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3031142435142384571.post-83149223778940396242014-04-03T22:57:22.165-07:002014-04-03T22:57:22.165-07:00This is awesome.

The child is a genius, but the only thing people see is that he is a "social misfit". It's sad. It's ignorant. It is much better now that he is older, but even now people expect him to "act" a certain way. I just wish people could see how beautiful they and complex those sweet children are! This is such a great idea. Thanks so much for sharing :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15430781056884428843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3031142435142384571.post-15469147998097283242014-04-03T05:18:03.659-07:002014-04-03T05:18:03.659-07:00Great list - thank you!Great list - thank you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3031142435142384571.post-2474461590162809982014-04-02T19:14:24.200-07:002014-04-02T19:14:24.200-07:00Gigi, I had no idea there are so many wonderful pi...Gigi, I had no idea there are so many wonderful picture books available. We have many kinds of students at my school, covering the wide spectrum of autism & asperger's. I will certainly share. There are many here, but could you message me or answer here which ones you might recommend first (top 3 maybe). I didn't know you had a child with autism, both a delight and a challenge, right? Thank you for sharing these great resources.Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.com
