Guest guest Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 Hi , " Of mice and Aliens " is a story book and I think the central character has AS. There are at least 2 other stories by the same author which include AS. Whether it is appropriate for your son will depend on his reading level and level of understanding, but I think it is aimed at his sort of age and older. Try looking at Kingsley's (publisher) website, as they carry a lot of titles to do with ASD. If you want something a bit more factual, I know there are booklets published by the NAS (in England), and so maybe there is an equivalent american society? in England Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
