Throughout my early life, I suffered in silence, and the depth didn't show until 1979 when I observed my son's heart-wrenching birth and watched helplessly as my bewildered wife endured excruciating pain. Later, I listened to a doctor label my son autistic. What the hell is autistic? Back then; I had never heard the phrase developmental, neural disorder. Not having any experience, I relied on the doctors' authority and professionalism. I depended on them for answers, and still, there was no meaningful support or information on which I could take advantage. I knew there was something divinely special and real about my son, and that kept me inspired and motivated; I would not accept that there was nothing I could do to help him. Also, the guesses and misinformation that I had to endure were unacceptable, yet I had to keep silent for fear of causing more issues for my speechless son. Looking back, I had no other choice. I had to walk a fine line. I was resigned to the fact that my son cou

"""All children with autism have ways of dropping into their own world, leaving us behind for a minute, an hour, a day.""
This is the essence of autism: a disorder that is, at its heart, about interaction. Many of the symptoms associated with autism come from either a lack of paying attention to other people or a lack of interest in joining in with the rest of the world.
Because this is the case, it is important that when you work with your child, you are addressing the core issue of autism: your child, for one reason or another, is not spending enough time in our interactive world.
What You Can Do Right Now to Help Your Child with Autism gives you the best techniques you can do – right now – to work with your child and draw him or her back into our interactive world.
The ten techniques in the book are not just explained in detail, they are also illustrated by true stories of Mr. Levy's work with children with autism (and their parents).

"We all know someone who struggles with Autism, this is a story written by my son, it's his drawings and how he sees the world and its people. It's a touching glimpse into his thought process.
It was years before our son spoke. I like to think he speaks only when he knows he has something to say, really he is one of the kindest people I know. Autism is different but it doesn't have to keep the people we love from experiencing life on their own terms. I am thrilled he has taken the time to share his perspective with you, if you have a child on the spectrum you will understand and if you don't, maybe now you will.
All proceeds from these books will go to his care and education."

"When a child is struggling with a behavior challenge or wants to learn a new skill, a contract can be a surprisingly effective solution that leads to more peaceful family dynamics. To help families create contracts as a collaborative process, Let’s Make a Contract offers an innovative combination of how-to text for parents and illustrated stories for children.

For parents, Let’s Make a Contract describes a straightforward, four-step solution called behavioral contracting, a research-based technique with proven real-world success. While contracts are a tool that can benefit anyone, they’re particularly useful with children on the autism spectrum, or with learning or developmental disabilities, who benefit from understanding clear expectations and receiving positive feedback and rewards.For children, the book’s beautifully illustrated stories show a diverse group of families using contracts to address common problems, such as completing chores or homework, getting along, becoming ind

This is a book written as it was being lived. This is not a medical journal written as a result of research nor is it a memoire written years or decades in retrospect. These are our experiences with autism spectrum disorder and the trials and tribulations our family has been through, almost in real time. The reader is taken into our emotions: the happiness, sadness, terror, and endless love that our family has experienced since diagnosis. You will meet our son, diagnosed just after his fifth birthday, and the many others that have helped us along this journey. Including, a very special friend that has become a member of our family and completely inseparable. The reader is taken into our home and experiences some of the same coping mechanisms and techniques that we have utilized to make this condition livable and life a little easier. I give my unsolicited advice as to how to make it through some of the most challenging times of this condition. This book is a reference for families livi

This is the profound moving story, told by their mother, of how two children were rescued from the tragedy of autism - and the first account in which diagnosis, therapy and authentic recovery are fully documented. From the opening page, when we are present at the first birthday party of Ann-Marie Maurice, readers of this extraordinary book enter deeply into the life of the Maurice family. We witness their rising anxiety as Anne-Marie, not long after that first birthday, begins to lose the words she has learned, to behave in bizarre ways, to become 'a person with a self' - and their response when they learn the terrible truth - Diagnosis: autism; Prognosis: incurable. We follow their frantic search for anyone who might offer hope, we follow their prayers and finally their providential discovery of intensive behavioural therapy - a treatment that has been documented to lead to dramatic improvement, and in some cases full recovery from autism. We are with the Maurices as they scramble to
