Industry Reviews

"This truly is the 'Mother's Little Helper' of the autism community! No more struggling to think of spontaneous explanations or reminders. Put one copy of the book in your child's backpack and another under his pillow! Few things I've seen will foster more independence in children with autism than The Hidden Curriculum and Other Everyday Challenges for Children with Autism." - Sherry Moyer, executive/research director, the University of Toledo Center for Excellence in Autism


"This book is a good match for me! It's organized by topic, easy to understand, and full of useful information. I keep it on my bookshelf and look things up when I don't know how to act or what to do in different situations." - Kaede Sakai, 13 years old and in 7th grade at Cal Young Middle School; she has a chihuahua named Lulu


"As the father of a teenage daughter with autism, I highly recommend this book. Since she began studying the hidden curriculum, I have seen her effectively manage meeting new people, respond to compliments, display good manners, and appropriately express anxiety. The teachings have
given her tools to help her get past the first awkward moments of an encounter
and a chance to engage others." - Charles Evans, father of teenager with autism


"We have been using books on the hidden curriculum during individual and group services for years, with many students reading the books and calendars cover to cover. We are very excited about the new and expanded edition, The Hidden Curriculum and Other Everyday Challenges for Elementary-Age Children With autism. This easy-to-read book provides examples from a child's perspective on a variety of topics we often forget to teach. What I especially like about it is its ability to encourage students to think of options of what to do in a given situation, which is not an easy skill for most students with ASD. Great resource for any classroom or home." - Kerry Mataya, MSEd, author of Successful Problem-Solving for High-Functioning Students With Autism Spectrum Disorders and director and consultant for the Autism Asperger Syndrome Consulting Group, LLC, in
the Birmingham, Alabama area, providing educational consultation to local school systems, behavior programming, after-school social groups, and summer camps
