A groundbreaking, long overdue book that explains how to identify
your autistic child's strengths and abilities and then use them as
a tool for social communication, improved learning, and overall
growth. The strengths of children and young adults diagnosed with
ASD are commonly overlooked, even by trained professionals.
Outdated attitudes, lack of sufficient training and an overreliance
on standardised testing works against recognising their
capabilities. Focusing on the importance of motivation strategies,
Hidden Strengths shows you how to build on every autistic child's
interests and strengths. Through real-life stories of individuals
whose innate abilities blossomed once they were acknowledged, this
book dispels unhelpful stereotypes and will help you unlock your
child's potential. It also aims to educate the wider community in
how to support, accept and embrace the gifts autistic individuals
offer. 'Will help both parents and teachers find and develop a
child's unique skills in memory, music, math, art, and attention to
details. Development of these skills can lead to both a more
rewarding life and possible careers' Temple Grandin, PhD, New York
