Summary

The award-winning book on engaging in more meaningful conversations with your child on the Autism spectrum.

If your child finds talking to people a struggle, this is the book to get the conversation started.

In this hands-on guide, Heather Jones offers practical advice, born of experience with her own son, which will help you teach your child the principles of communication. Full of strategies and examples, it shows how you can allay fears, build confidence and teach your child to enjoy conversation. Once a child gets used to talking with other people, many life skills can develop more easily as they grow up - from making friends and shopping for themselves, to being interviewed and eventually getting a job.

This handy book provides guidance and inspiration to parents, teachers and anyone else who cares for a child who finds language and comprehension difficult.

A life line

The importance of experience and sharing, I much valued in this book. It explains very clearly how to take the next step with your child and to also know you are not alone.
Jamie has achieved so much with the loving support of his Mother who didn’t give up.
