Guest hallyscomet Report post Posted April 12, 2006 (edited) Hello Sweetpea, Welcome to the forum. <'> <'> This link attached is possibly the most easiest to read through the jungle of books available. It is really brief, and very precise, and easy to understand. http://www.cyh.com/HealthTopics/HealthTopi...p=306&id=1945#1 Check out this attachment first, as it will make life a lot easier for you. As there is a sea of information out there and it is easy to get swamped by it all. As well as this many parents have given the book "A Martian in the Playground" the thumbs up, like RQ advised look in Resources.

Kathryn Report post Posted April 12, 2006 Sweetpea, There are loads of books out there, but a good one to start with is Asperger Syndrome, a Guide for Parents and professionals, by Tony Attwood. Here is a link to the National Autistic Society information guides, which are also very useful. http://www.nas.org.uk/nas/jsp/polopoly.jsp?d=114 I hope this helps, Kathryn.
