Book Reviews of The Autism Trail Guide: Postcards from the Road Less Traveled

Book Review: The Autism Trail Guide
Summary: 5 Stars

As a mom of two kids with autism, I read every book about autism that I can get my hands on. By far, Ellen's books are the best out there. Since The Autism Trail Guide is a collection of essays, the book is perfect for busy parents and educators who find themselves with only 15 minutes here and there throughout the day to read. It's a very easy read, not at all "clinical" like so many books on the subject. The book is the perfect mixture of information about the nature of autism (including challenging behaviors and sensory issues) and insights that can only come from a parent dealing with autism day in and day out. I recommend this book (and all of Ellen's other books) to anyone that loves, teaches or otherwise cares for a child on the autism spectrum.

Summary of The Autism Trail Guide: Postcards from the Road Less Traveled

Ellen Notbohm's child-centered approach to autism is already having immeasurable effects on the autism community through her books Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew, 1001 Great Ideas for Teaching and Raising Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders, and Ten Things Your Student with Autism Wishes You Knew. A cohesive compilation of her best articles, The Autism Trail Guide: Postcards from the Road Less Traveled will help parents of children with autism take on everyday challenges while celebrating what their children bring to their world. Ellen offers concrete advice on issues such as math homework, video games, and tricky behavior, and also tackles the more abstract concepts of parenting, such as trusting parental instincts, when to take risks, how to hang on, and when to let go. This book is absolutely invaluable to all who are "on the autism trail."
