"The Different Shades of Autism"
is a marvelous resource for parents, pediatricians,
teachers and therapists. It provides help and hope
as replacements for fear and stigma, and it provides
information and
intervention as replacements for denial and delay.
It blends accurately, and sensitively, the important
information one needs to know about autism, with the
understanding and individualized approach necessary
to every child who is autistic. It is a realistic,
and optimistic, view of the many shades with which
autism does present itself, and the many faces and
families it does engulf, providing for families and
professionals alike, useful guidance, help and hope.
I highly recommend it. It is a marvelous video." Darold A. Treffert, M.D.
