Review Quotes: This book is clear, concise and practical... in other words, it is a parent's dream. The book gives us usable information in a blessedly short book. I recommend this book for parents, caregivers, and teachers. Tony is one of the world's most empathic and creative experts on those individuals on the higher end of the autism spectrum.
