Review :
This book will make you Laugh and Laugh and Laugh and Laugh and........ and cry a little too.....
Teacher, autism trainer and mother -Alyson Beytien has performed a magic act. I don't mean raising three boys with autism and not going insane- I mean writing an entertaining book about the challenges and joys of raising her unique and lovable guys while making the reader LOL (you know... "laugh out loud") and wonder - HDSDI (how does she do it!).
"Autism Every Day" is Alyson's story of a life filled with the many acronyms familiar to every parent of a child with special needs, the funny and not so funny experiences that make her laugh and cry and the strategies she has learned through her training and on the job parenting. I use the author's first name because readers will quickly feel like they know Alyson. She is the shopper in Walmart trying to diffuse a tantrum, the parent who cries at IEP meetings and friend who dances next to her child in public to explain away his unusual body movements (it's a family dance she says!!).
Pages saturated with love and...
Absolutely Awesome.
I bought this book after listening to Alyson speak. I bought two more after that. My whole family has read and loved this book! I have two children with autism and I am always looking for ideas to help them. I was inspired by her spunk, her practical advice, and her obvious love for her "guys". This book is such an easy read! Alyson is so honest an so real and her strategies at the end of each chapter are fantastic! This book will make you laugh, cry, and will give you hope for the future for your loved one with autism.
This is the book I've been looking for!
Hands down the best book I've read so far. I've read lots of books about autism, but I've needed a book written from a parent's perspective. You can do better if you're looking for a book that will help you understand what autism is, how to spot it, and what treatment options are available. But if you're already past that, and are looking for a book that gives you helpful tips about how to live life with your child wherever they may fall on the spectrum, this is it. Ms. Beytien is an excellent writer, and this book is just so funny and accessible for parents on the spectrum. She also has a resource list that includes suggestions for other books. I really enjoyed her stories and anecdotes.
The one thing I disagree with is her assertion that she is not an expert. She is absolutely the type of expert that many of us that are just starting the journey need. I have no idea what to expect when my child is in middle school, or high school, so it is incredibly helpful to...
