My Friend with Autism
Enhanced Edition is the exceptional result of author and parent Beverly Bishop’s determination to educate her son’s classmates about autism, thus helping her son fit in at school.

Sensory Sensitivity
Communication Differences
Unique Ways of Playing
Insistence on Routine
At the end of the book are page-by-page notes for adults, which supplement the text with facts and explanations to further educate teachers and classmates’ parents.
