Description

The many gifted and spirited children the author works with at A.R.T.S (Adaptive art. Respite. & Therapeutic play. Services.) inspired her to write this book. Often times, she noticed children felt misunderstood at home, school, and in the community. This book helps children understand how they are wired and it gives them a way to communicate without having to express it verbally or face-to-face. It provides something concrete that could be individualized and given to new teachers, coaches, or friends to help them understand who the child is and how he or she functions best. Most importantly, this resource teaches children how to advocate for themselves!

If there's one thing missing from my childhood, it's books like this for children. My mother read to my sister and I for years and I still have memory bits about it. This was a special thing for me.

However, I don't remember any books which would educate the masses about children who were different from other children. What a shame. A book like this is always germane.

It's also empowering.

Meet ME Where I'm At! is creative, well-designed and well-done.

I found this book to be useful. I have worked with autistic children and this fits them perfectly. Very good read for those who are around autistic kids.

First and foremost, I could not have any more praise for this book - it's simply brilliant. It offers special needs children a way to communicate with those around them (particularly school staff and their peers) whilst at the same time providing explanations as to why their communication needs are different to others. It can be personalised, meaning that a young person can adapt it to their needs and share with teachers and suchlike. I love this book because it empowers individuals with special needs to be more independent and better understood. 5*!
