Fully illustrated with color photographs, it sets out fun, simple steps that explain what caring for yourself actually involves how you can do it, where it is done, why it is important.
At the end of each story is a handy 'Pause for thought' page for parents which offers tips and strategies to help a child with each activity.
This charming book will be much loved by children with ASD and will enable them and their parents to cope with the daily activities that can be such a challenge.

Caring for Myself  Oct 22, 2008
Having worked with children on the autism spectrum I found this book to be unique in it's style. It addresses the issues of sensory integration within various areas of self help. What the average child finds easy, the ASD child finds difficult in the way of touch, sound, taste, etc. This book helps the child to see these experiences as normal activities
 
Nice.  Apr 3, 2008
It's a nice book. I've made similar items for specific children with their own picture, though not bound like this book. I like the pages with just a sentence or two. I've used index cards with even more simple phrasing to cover the ones with paragraphs where there is too much info for particular students.
