Imagine a world where your autistic child is included, engaged and
cherished for how they are; a world which changes for autistic children,
rather than changing the child.
What Works for Autistic Children brings the conversation about
inclusivity into the forefront and turns it on its head. Instead of
modifying the autistic child and making exceptions or special
circumstances, Luke shows you, the parent, how the world can, should and
must change to accommodate your child.
He identifies the aspects that impact on your child's life most - the
family, their school, their friends, their environment - and outlines
the steps that can and should be taken by everyone involved to improve
their outcome and create an autism-friendly landscape.
From early communication, through pre-school, primary school, secondary
school - on holidays, school trips and with friends - your child should
not have to struggle to exist within the parameters of a world they
don't understand. What Works for Autistic Children will give you the
dialogue, tools and starting points to involve every professional and
family member as advocates for a world where your child flourishes.
