Preface


It begins


Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew



I am a whole child



My senses are out of sync



Distinguish between wont and can't



I am a concrete thinker. I interpret language literally



Listen to all the ways I'm trying to communicate

Afterword


Triumph and Transition


Evolution


Appendix


Questions for group discussion or self-reflection
