Children with ASD are often confused by our world of rules and consequences, including how their behavior impacts another person or situation. The result is often aggressive behavior. The Way to A, designed for children ages 3 to 9 years old, presents a simple, logical, and systematic strategy that clarifies and sequentially teaches the child how to manage his behavior by engaging in forethought and self-analysis before acting out. What sets this strategy apart is that it then goes on to give the child a personal and concrete incentive to use the alternative behavior. Developed with visual learners in mind, the book offers the ultimate in customization ? the laminated pages may be written on and wiped clean as new situations come up. The illustrations are delightful and use the concrete nature of red and green, ?A? and ?B, ? to illustrate correct and incorrect pathways. In addition, thinking bubbles, arrows, and boxes help make the book easy to follow and understand.

Children and teenagers with autism can struggle to cope with the loss of a loved one, and the complicated and painful emotions of bereavement. This book explains death in concrete terms that the child with autism will understand, explores feelings that the child may encounter as a part of bereavement, and offers creative and expressive activities that facilitate healing. With illustrations throughout, this interactive book begins with a simple story about what happens when people die. Each chapter then expands on the issues that have been raised in the story and offers a variety of coping skills exercises including writing, art and craft, cooking, movement, relaxation, and remembrance activities. Encouraging children with autism to express their loss through discussion, personal reflection, and creative activity, the book is ideal for children and teens to work through by themselves, or with the support of a family member or professional.

This is the story of a little girl who just wanted to go, even when others tried to stop her. Jennifer Keelan was determined to make a change—even if she was just a kid. She never thought her wheelchair could slow her down, but the way the world around her was built made it hard to do even simple things. Like going to school, or eating lunch in the cafeteria. Jennifer knew that everyone deserves a voice! Then the Americans with Disabilities Act, a law that would make public spaces much more accessible to people with disabilities, was proposed to Congress. And to make sure it passed, Jennifer went to the steps of the Capitol building in Washington DC to convince them. And, without her wheelchair, she climbed. ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP!

THIS IS A STORY ABOUT PEOPLE LIKE YOU DAYDREAMING THEY ARE SOMEONE ELSE SOMEONE WHO IS HAVING MORE FUN AND IS FINDING, OR HAS FOUND, THE WAY TO GO. Is Solomon Razor Bob Rimmer? Well, Bob is a bit older an octogeneian. But they both love all women, and like Solomon, Bob has sailed in Belize. Like Solomon, Bob has a wife who lets him write about and sleep with women like Anne Hutchinson, Elizabeth Pepys and in this story, a Vivien Leigh, look-alike all of whom died before their time. IS THIS A TRUE STORY? Bob believes that all of us have alter egos. We, not only, never stop living other people's lives celebrities or not but we live story book lives and as Peter Brook once said: "Our lives are ceaselessly interwined with narrative. The stories we tell, or hear told, or imagine are reworked into our own lives. Many of us are "wannabees." Sure, Bob wishes he had been Ian Fleming and made millions writing about James Bond. But Solomon Razor knows that his "way to go" story is true and more realistic and lovingly sexier, than any 007 missions, than Dirty Harry's or most good/bad guys including Clyde, Davy Crockett (King of the Wild Frontier) and Rhett Butler, whose names Solomon uses in his travels with various women on the Yucatan Peninsula. AS FOR YOU Will women readers wish they were Vivien Sweet, aka Scarlet O'Hara? or Myrtle Craddock aka Maggie Craddock or Phoebe Fortin aka Rarharu. One thing is sure, like Solomon Razor, most male readers would be happy to go to bed with any, or all, of them!
