Book Reviews of I Am Utterly Unique: Celebrating the Strengths of Children with Asperger Syndrome and High-Functioning Autism

Book Review: The most overrated book I've ever seen!
Summary: 1 Stars

Because I have a daughter with high functioning autism, I contiualy search for quality products which will help her and those who share her life. I bought this book because of the rave reviews it received. Instead, I was "utterly disappointed". This alphabet book could be written for ANY population - not just those with Asperger Syndrome or High Functioning Autism. There is nothing that informs the child - nothing that helps explain. Feeling good about themselves is a critical component of their journey to self awareness - but WHERE is there anything in this book that helps them make them more aware? For professionals to recommend this book is a huge disservice to those who are searching for real tools and help on this journey.

Summary of I Am Utterly Unique: Celebrating the Strengths of Children with Asperger Syndrome and High-Functioning Autism

Discover the unique characteristics and abilities of children with Asperger Syndrome and high-functioning autism from A to Z. This book, laid out in an A-to-Z format, celebrates the extraordinary gifts and unique perspectives that children with ASD possess. Each page of this playful alphabet book presents one of the children s many talents and abilities. The kid-friendly illustrations and clever text create a positive portrayal of children with ASD.
