The Autism Trail Guide
Postcards from the Road Less Traveled
by Ellen Notbohm

Ellen Notbohm’s child-centered approach to autism is already having immeasurable effects on autism communities around the world through her multi-award winning books Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew, 1001 Great Ideas for Teaching and Raising Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (co-authored with Veronica Zysk), and Ten Things Your Student with Autism Wishes You Knew.

Her latest book offers an anthology of insights as wide as the autism spectrum itself. A cohesive compilation of her best articles, The Autism Trail Guide: Postcards from the Road Less Traveled will inspire parents of children with autism to take on everyday challenges while celebrating what their children bring to their world. Ellen offers concrete advice on everyday issues like math homework, video games and tricky behavior, and also tackles the more abstract concepts of parenting that have no simple answers. When to take risks and when to play it safe. When to step up and when to back off. How to hang on and when to let go.

Absolutely invaluable to all who are ‘on the autism trail.’

Praise from parents and professionals:

“I have been working as an educator/therapist with children with autism for five years now and I feel a deep resonance with these books, as the writings are based on the same system of belief that I have always tried to work from.”
– LINDSAY RONALD, Intervention Therapist

“You have taught me so much about my nephew’s world I could never have understood! I am so grateful for people like you who are blazing a trail for the children of tomorrow.”
– CHERYL WHEELER, University Library Technician
