Essential First Steps for Parents of Children With Autism: Helping the Littlest Learners (Topics in Autism) - Softcover
Synopsis
When autism is diagnosed or suspected in young children, overwhelmed parents wonder where to turn and how to begin helping their child. Drs. Delmolino and Harris, experienced clinicians and ABA therapists, eliminate the confusion and guesswork by outlining the pivotal steps parents can take now to optimize learning and functioning for children age 5 and younger. The book covers:
- early indicators of ASD in children younger than 3 years
- behaviors of 3 to 5 year olds with a confirmed diagnosis
- research about effective treatments & teaching methods
- strategies for boosting play, communication & self-help skills
- support for the rest of the family
Case studies and a review of evidence-based interventions and proven practices help parents prepare a strong foundation for their child's future development.

Review
Highly recommended for those with newly diagnosed children, this helpful work is essential for all public library collections. --Library Journal, starred review
The tone of Essential First Steps is extraordinarily hopeful. Each chapter opens with the story of a family, and proceeds to explain diagnoses, treatment plans, and strategies for the whole family. The emphasis is on scientifically-proven methods of treating ASD. Parents are cautioned about delays in treatment, fraudulent treatments and roadblocks to treatment. The emphasis is on encouraging early intervention strategies and utilizing well-trained professionals. --CAPHIS Consumer Connections
