Fifteen Things They Forgot to Tell You About Autism: The Stuff That Transformed My Life as an Autism Parent Debby Elley

What if the things people need to know about autism is not the information they're getting? Combining myth-busting advice with personal experience, this book from the mother of autistic twins shares simple strategies to build children's confidence, communication, and independence.

From sharing the joy of yodelling around shops at the weekend, to finding creative ways to communicate with both her verbal and her non-verbal sons, Debby Elley gives practical and fun tips for everyday living and shows that being autistic is just another way of being. Both witty and candid, the book discusses labels, meltdowns, acceptance, happiness and much more.

I highly recommend this book! -- Adele Devine, Special Needs Teacher and Co-Founder of SEN Assist autism software
Bright, witty, and upbeat, Debby Elley's book is a heartfelt plea for people to understand the world as those with autism see it, backed up by lots of practical examples of how to do it. As entertaining to read as it is thought-provoking. -- Peter Sutcliffe, SEN Magazine Editor
This book is full of real-life humour, tongue-in-cheek truth telling, and front-line, in-the-trenches parenting know-how. -- Jennifer Cook O'Toole, author of The Asperkid's (Secret) Book of Social Rules
This is a great book...It's chatty, supportive, informative and will work as an antidote to more clinical, research based publications...Synthesising her experience over many years, she is a powerful advocate for positive parenting.
