Item Description

"The Autism Acceptance Book: Being a Friend to Someone with Autism" and "The Special Needs Acceptance Book: Being a Friend to Someone with Special Needs" books by Ellen Sabin.

"The Autism Acceptance Book" is an activity book, a conversation-starter, and an educational tool that teaches children about autism and the challenges faced by people with special needs. It shows children that we are all different, helps them understand why people with autism may act differently; helps them imagine how things might feel for those with autism and lets them think of ways to be understanding, respectful and accepting of people with autism. While focusing on autism, ultimately, this book teaches broad life lessons about accepting and embracing people's differences. This book is ideal to share with your child or in a classroom or group setting.

"The Special Needs Acceptance Book" is an interactive, educational, and character-building book that introduces children to the challenges faced by people with special needs while also supporting their personal journey toward appreciating and respecting people's differences. This book offers educational information, conversation-starters, and engaging exercises that invite children to "walk in someone else's shoes" as they learn to treat others the same ways they would like to be treated themselves. The book covers a range of disabilities including autism, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, cystic fibrosis, learning disabilities like dyslexia, ADHD, blindness and deafness. It also empowers children by helping them understand the power of their actions and how they can be a good friend to others. Finally, it shows children that we are all different, all special, and all of us like to be accepted and understood!
