**Mia Report post Posted September 9, 2008 Hello again. Thank you Kirstie, Clare and Karen. I am from New South Wales Australia. Sydney actually do you know Manly or Palm Beach, well we are somewhere in the middle. Kirstie, I have a copy of that book by Tony Attwood. What I am looking for is a book that is more Autism focused and not just Aspergers Syndrome. I'm really looking for a recommendation for Autism as a whole. Reason is I am doing Childcare and do volunteer works with kids and I notice different children its also of a learning about my brother too and study purposes. I have Tony Attwoods book but need more. Thanks Enissa Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
