Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew Jan 26, 2010 Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew is an awsome book. I wish someone had recomended it 4 years ago when our son was diagnosed with PDD. It opened our eyes to so many things we were doing wrong and assumptions we were making that were also wrong. My son's Drs., Psychiatrist, therapists, and teachers were unable to answer many of our questions or explain what our son was going through like this book did. The sad part is the fact that our son had to suffer through and deal with parents who had no clue in how to help him.
I recomend this book to any parent, therapist and teacher who works with a person with ASD.

Best Book on Autism Dec 18, 2009 This is the best book on autism I ever read, and as an autism specialist in the education system I read MANY of them. The chapters are short & easy to read, but filled with much-needed information. This book reminds us as carers of children with autism that they are first and foremost CHILDREN, they have minds, and they have very good reasons for the way they behave. It is up to us as the adults to figure out the best way to reach into their worlds and give children the tools they need to manage their way out. Ten Things Every Child With Autism Wishes You Knew is a great tool for parents, teachers, and anyone who loves someone with autism. I gave this book to many parents as a resource because I found it so helpful.

Just an okay read. Nov 08, 2009 I found out that my friend's child had autism so I wanted to read as much as I could on it. I thought I'd start with this book. As I said it was an okay read. There was a lot of info in this book, but it was a lot longer than it needed to be.
The Strengths: The first part of the book is fantastic! When she goes over the 10 things we need to know as parents, I really liked and I learned a lot. There are a lot of good suggestions for parents and teachers should know. I really liked that part of the book. The first part I highly suggest.
The Weakness: For me this book falls short in a few places. The biggest issue I had with this is that the author talks as if she has a PhD, and she doesn't. She's a parents of a child with autism., She does give a lot of good suggestions, but she writes as if her word is law. There are a lot of levels of autism, and I had the feeling that she feels that every child has a severe case of autism.
She mentions that children of autism needs a daily schedule, and they do. However, the author never gives an example.
Again, I'm glad I read this book, and I didn't learn a lot, but I wish there was more. I consider this a 'starter' book. It has a lot of good ideas, but it's not perfect. I do plan to read other books on the subject.

Reminded me that my daughter is a whole person. Oct 29, 2009 Autism is a complex syndrome that varies from person to person. No two people have the exact same profile. But, as the author reminds us, every person shares the same dreams, wants, and need for understanding. Autistic children are often reduced to their deficits because each day is a struggle to find a way to make the child fit in. However,parents and teachers often forget that a child with autism is a child who needs to be loved and respected for what they CAN do because ultimately what they can do is going to carry them through life. Ms Notbohm's list of ten things to remember about children who have autism is simple to remember but profound in its insight. Parents and relatives of children labeled as "autistic" will find hope, optimism, and common sense in this book that re-inspired my wife and I as we learn how to assist our child.

Very Helpfull Oct 22, 2009 I originally borrowed this book from the library. It was excellent. I then purchased a copy for my neice as her 2 year
old son was diagnosed with high functioning Autism. She loved it and asked me to purchase another copy for her
sister-in-law.
