The Children's Guide To Autism

The Children's Guide to Autism is a charming, encouraging and positive, short, fact based description of what Autism can be like and is aimed at younger children (roughly 6 - 9 years). It's a great way to start talking to your child about autism (perhaps they have just received a diagnosis, or have an autistic friend). The author wrote the book to explain Autism to her son after his diagnosis, and to his friends, in a factual way rather than a story about a specific character with very specific symptoms, as Autism isn't like that, it's a spectrum condition and no two people are the same. The book was first published during World Autism Awareness Week 2015. The section titles are: different brains, the Autism spectrum, understanding people, the right words, communicating, noticing details, senses, coping with change and difference is great

About the Author
Fiona Reeves lives in Manchester, UK with her husband Mark and two children. Her son was diagnosed with autism when he was 6 years old, and this has inspired Fiona to write some books to help him. Fiona wrote this book to explain her son's Autism to him and his friends in a factual way rather than a story about a specific character with very specific symptoms, as Autism isn't like that. Her second book, 'The Children's Guide To Things People Say (but don't really mean)', is all about UK sayings / metaphors / idioms / phrases people use that aren't meant to be taken literally. It was published on Amazon in August 2016. Fiona has primarily worked as a Software Engineer and Website Developer.
