Great resource for understanding autism
I can't express how much this guide has helped me understand and support both my friend and her autistic child. It offers practical advice that's easy to apply in daily life and the personal stories and real-life examples makes you feel like no-one is alone in this journey. I particularly appreciated the sections on the different levels of autism and specific strategies for each. The focus on understanding a kid's unique way of communicating has been invaluable and it will help to truly empowered us all to be better advocates for the children in our life – and possibly not only the children with the gift of autism. Highly recommend it to any parent or wider caregiver navigate similar challenges.

Learning to help parents
As a neonatal intensive care nurse, I am aware that some beautiful children are more susceptible to becoming autistic due to their extreme prematurity. Learning what a family will be challenged with will hopefully help them. This audiobook was just wonderful. I felt the information was super easy to follow and beautifully written. I highly suggest it.

Support Is On The Way, You Are Not Alone
Autism can have many different stages and ranges within a child and can change the dynamic of a family quickly and often. A rollercoaster of emotions arises, but this book calms all the fears and helps provide the strategies to stand up to this challenge. I was so blessed by the compassion and empathy provided as it takes from early sign recognition to therapy options available and more. The real-life stories included are made for a related scenario and give hope to those on the journey. It would be best if you were as well informed about autism so you can help your child in the best way possible. Fighting for your child is possible by equipping yourself with the information within this audiobook.
