My Social Stories Book

Summary: Presicion through simplicity
Review: As an individual unfamiliar with the nuances of AS, I found "My Social Stories Book" particularly effective in identifying, conveying and demystifying what is mundane for most people, but what can be overwhelming for those with AS. Sean McAndrew's brilliant translation of the text via child-friendly illustrations relevant to their respective scenarios are what make a publication like this one truly work. Much like crosswalk symbols, these illustrations must be absolutely simplistic in order to be unmistakeably understood. Much respect to McAndrew who rendered the abstract idea of divorce in such tender illustrative grace.

Summary: Writing your own stories is better
Review: This book is too expensive for what it offers, and is definitely not recommended,write your own stories, since so many examples are available online.

This book does not give an exhaustive examples and not that many pictures. You know your child better and a majority of social stories may not be appliacble to you.

I was greatly disappointed with this book,
