Summary:
An
interactive
workbook with activities designed for
children
with autism spectrum and related disorders to learn how to make and keep
friends
.
Making
friends
and getting along with others is a big part of a child's life. But for
children
with autism spectrum disorders, making and keeping
friends
doesn't come easy. They need to be intentionally taught a range of strategies directed at broadening their social understanding skills and competencies. This
interactive
workbook is aimed at
children
ages 7-11, a period when friendships are increasingly important and a lack of
friendship
skills is all the more obvious and challenging.
Friendly
Facts
explores five themes: What Is a Friend?, Being a Friend, Making
Friends
, Real
Friends
, and Staying
Friends
. Through
fun
activities that appeal to today's youth,
children
explore
and put to a real-life test the major tenets of making and keeping
friends
. As such, this book prepares them for successfully participating in human interactions for the rest of their lives. Author Josie Santomauro's son,Damian was diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome at the age of five. He is now a PhD candidate and researcher in the field of autism. Josie's books include
