My Little Alien

This book is written for parents, teachers, carers, grandparents, or anyone who cares for, works with, or loves a child with Asperger Syndrome. Those with Asperger Syndrome, including adults, might also enjoy reading it. The first half of the book is a case-study about the author's son from his birth to the time of this publication (when he is 24 years of age). This section includes an interview with him when he was a teenager, and again last year, as well as a reflective chapter written by him which is particularly inspiring. The second part of the book is a practical helping guide - teaching ideas, pointers, suggestions, observations, warnings, explanations, remedies - for parents, families and practitioners. It has successfully been used in draft form by counselling clients and interested others.
