Welcome to Book Four: Tools and Other Information in ‘Autism: The Big Book Set of Help!’ series.
This is where the rubber hits the road, and you will learn about the innovative tools and resources available to support this wonderful community of Autistics.
Book Four is all about giving you more tools, more resources, and more information about how to help an autistic person live their best life.
From creating a sensory haven and meeting their (or your) needs to visiting hospitals, getting pregnant, handling hygiene issues (like cutting hair or nails), buying clothing and dealing with sensory issues.
This instalment is all about help on a very practical level and provides helpful information about hobbies and interests or ways of thinking.
Providing understanding shared from inside a neurodivergent brain.
If you know or love an Autistic person, or if you are an amazing Autistic yourself, then the best way to offer support is to try to understand the world through our eyes.
That’s what the ‘Autism: Big Book Set of Help!’ is here for.
