Product Description
The Autism Acceptance Book is an interactive, educational, and character-building book that introduces children to the challenges faced by people with autism while also supporting their personal journey toward appreciating and respecting people's differences.
This book offers educational information, conversation-starters, and engaging exercises that invite children to "walk in someone else's shoes" as they learn to treat others the same ways they would like to be treated themselves.

5 out of 5 stars Very well written.   October 28, 2008
This book not only helped my daughter come to terms with her Aspergers diagnosis positively, it helped her better understand her autistic little brother. She now views her Aspergers as the asset that it is, rather than a weakness. Bravo to the authors of this book! Well done!


5 out of 5 stars Valuable "walk in their shoes" book   June 15, 2008
This is an excellent book to present to a classroom to help the students understand the persepctive and behavior of a peer who has autism. It raised many good questions from the students, and increased their understanding and tolerance of their peer's differences.

Book is good. It seems appropriate for kids who are in kindergarten or older.


5 out of 5 stars The Autism Acceptance Book   October 30, 2007
I think this is a great resource for any child to use who might interact with a child with autism. Its meant to be an individual book, where the child writes their name in, and personalizes it. I thought it was more of a resource/story book- but it was a pleasant surprise!


5 out of 5 stars Great for group and individual   September 9, 2007
I really like this book. I appreciate that it encourages the reader to find commonalities with a friend who has autism. It shows that people can be friends with those who have autism. I am an educator in my church and I plan to use this is children's small groups.
