Other features in this book include an extensive glossary, resources, and activity photos. From Flapping to Function is also an excellent guide for therapists, educators and others who want to understand the impact of autism spectrum disorders on hand function and effectively help children to reach their learning potentials and independence to perform everyday activities .…
