Meet Ellen KorinAsperger Syndrome: An Owner's Manual 2


Order the 2008 Hidden Curriculum Calendar today for only $10Hello all,

The long-awaited Asperger Syndrome: An Owner's Manual 2 has finally arrived. This interactive workbook is derived from my work with adolescents and adults on the autism spectrum, primarily those with Asperger Syndrome and nonverbal learning disabilities. It is a sequel to my earlier book, Asperger Syndrome-An Owner's Manual: What You, Your Parents, and Your Teachers Need to Know, for young people in grades 5 to 8.

I have learned through my work that, despite a common diagnosis, people on the spectrum are extremely diverse, each possessing a unique profile. I have also discovered that much of what is not intuitive for persons on the spectrum can be learned. (Read more from Ellen ...)
