FITTING IN COLIN THOMPSON FOREWORD BY TONY ATTWOOD JUN 2016 • 232pp • hb • £15.99• $25.00 9781785920462 • ebook-9781784503017

The extraordinary illustrated life of Aspie author and illustrator Colin Thompson “Everything in this book is true. You might think some things are just too unbelievable or funny or silly to be true, but every tiny detail really did happen.”

Take one small boy; add manic depression, three wives, three daughters, two divorces, amazing creative talent, and Asperger’s syndrome. In this memoir, Colin Thompson invites you to explore his almost-unbelievable life from past to present, though not necessarily in that order. Filled with family photographs and mesmerising illustrations drawn by the author himself, prepare to step inside the life and mind of an extraordinary man.

If you, or your friends or relations, have ever felt that you do not fit in this world, then this book will tell you how one person survived it all.

‘Colin’s autobiography is engaging and informative, but is also itself a work of art.’

From the foreword author, Tony Attwood, of the best-selling The Complete Guide to Asperger’s Syndrome

‘When I grow up I want to have Colin Thompson’s life. A most glorious bittersweet soup; eccentric, irreverent, philosophical, nourishing and utterly fascinating.’

COLIN THOMPSON has worked as a silk-screen printer, a graphic designer, a stage manager in the theatre but never as a lumberjack in Canada or a sailor on a tramp-steamer in the South Seas. He is the author and illustrator of over 65 published books. Colin lives in Australia with his wife.

- Adam Elliot, animator, writer, director and producer of films including Mary and Max and the Academy Award-winning Harvie Krumpet

‘Fitting in is always the huge challenge for an Aspie. Here is a journey that is honest, enlightening, moving and full of laughter. I really could not put it down. A must read!’

- Gillian Helfgott, author of Love You to Bits and Pieces: Life With David Helfgott

In 1999 I finally succeeded in building a time machine.

1952 – Sex Education – part 1

T

Forest Hall* Boarding School – Yorkshire – I’m third from the left looking at my feet.

here were more than a hundred acres of thick North Yorkshire woods, and in front of them at the top of a hill was the school, a beautiful country mansion like something out of a children’s story.

Sixty boys and ten staff. It looked like paradise, but it was a prison, too far from anywhere to run away from, though one boy did and was found drowned in the river a few days later. It looked like a childhood dream, long days of Latin and cricket, of playing in the trees, cross-country running and training to become a leader of men, uniforms and views of the world from Harrods, privilege for the privileged in yet another isolated cocoon. But there was a darkness about the place like an invisible cloak, a darkness that could stifle innocence, a darkness like a memory of Charles Dickens.

*

Forest Hall is now a very smart hotel and spa. I wonder if they’d give me a discount.

SEX, DRUGS AND ASPERGER’S SYNDROME (ASD)

FROM THE AUTHOR OF…

A User Guide to Adulthood LUKE JACKSON FOREWORD BY TONY ATTWOOD FEB 2016 • 208pp • hb • £16.99• $25.00 9781849056458 • ebook-9781784501396

A no-holds-barred, funny and articulate guide to the pitfalls and positives of the young adult years on the autism spectrum Luke Jackson’s unabridged and sparkling sequel to his best-selling user guide to adolescence Freaks, Geeks and Asperger Syndrome is the must-read handbook for teenagers and young adults on the autism spectrum. With devastating clarity, Luke focuses on the pitfalls involved in navigating the transition to adulthood, and the challenges of adult life. He covers everything from bullying and drugs to socialising, sex, negotiating relationships, and finding and keeping your first job.

‘Jackson’s personal and brutally honest take on being an adult with ASD is eye-opening and refreshing. A valuable read for teens and adults with ASD as well as parents, siblings, employers, teachers, caregivers, friends, and partners of those on the spectrum.’

- Library Journal

BOOK EXTRACT MY NAME IS LUKE JACKSON. At present, I am 26 years young, or old.

Personally, I’ve always noted the difference between people who mark themselves in terms of ‘years old’ or ‘years young’. You could draw ties between that and the ‘glass half full’ paradigm – viewing life in the years that have already passed or in terms of how young you are. Me, I’m neither an optimist nor a pessimist, but a realist, so suffice it to say that 26 years of life have passed.

When I was younger, I wrote a book called Freaks, Geeks and Asperger Syndrome: A User Guide to Adolescence. It was a guidebook to the pitfalls of becoming a teenager. I was 13 years old then, and much has happened since. Back then, I was a fresh-faced just-turned-teen, and teenage life was still new, ish. So much has happened since then, and not just on a personal level. Revolutions have come and gone, corporations have risen and fallen and technology has come on in leaps and bounds. Let’s face it, the 21st century, so far, has shown itself to be an equally exciting and scary time to be alive.

FREAKS, GEEKS AND ASPERGER SYNDROME A User Guide to Adolescence LUKE JACKSON 2002 • 216pp • pb • £13.99• $22.95 9781843100980 • ebook-9781846423567

The award winning user guide to adolescence on the Autism spectrum Drawing from his own experiences and gaining information from his teenage brother and sisters, Luke Jackson wrote this enlightening, honest and witty book in an attempt to address difficult topics such as bullying, friendships, when and how to tell others about AS, school problems, dating and relationships, and morality.

Part of the READING WELL scheme. 27 books selected by young people and health professionals to provide 13 to 18 year olds with high-quality support, information and advice about common mental health issues and related conditions.

A remarkable book from a unique boy!’, - My Weekly

‘An excellent book’, - The Guardian

’Compelling reading…Luke has written a book that’s intelligent, articulate, sensitive and funny.’, - The Big Issue

As a 13-year-old child, though, nothing I wrote in the first book could have prepared me for the years that followed. To say it was a rollercoaster ride is like saying the sun is a ‘bit warm’, or denoting the speed of light as ‘pretty fast’. My having come through the other side is the reason for writing this book (which, by the way, I hope you have bought and aren’t just reading in the bookshop. If you are, then buy it! It gets better, trust me).

ILSE SAND JUN 2016 • 160pp • pb • £9.99• $15.95 9781785920660 • ebook-9781784503246

What it means to be a highly sensitive person, including the characteristics, challenges and benefits of being highly sensitive

Feelings are something we have, not something we are.’

Revealing the complexity of emotions such as happiness, anger, fear, and jealousy, and how these are based on our perception of other people, Ilse Sand offers her professional wisdom on the psychology of feelings. Establishing that emotions are not always as appropriate as they first appear to be, the book encourages you to take a closer look at why you feeling certain things, and how you can change how you feel. Especially written for highly sensitive people, guidance is included on how to identify the vulnerable feelings that often underlie our more volatile emotional states, and practical activities are suggested to help to embrace or reject sadness, delay impulsive actions, and allow yourself to be happy. Drawing on real-life examples throughout, the book offers you the means to improve your understanding of not only your own emotions and emotional actions, but those of others.

In today’s fast-paced, increasingly public society, we are expected to be resilient, to have the energy to manage a packed work schedule, social calendar, and a large network of friends, both online and offline, day and night. If you find yourself struggling to live up to, or even enjoy, these non-stop social expectations, then this book is for you.

Written for highly sensitive people, the book explains the characteristics of being highly sensitive and how to overcome common difficulties, such as low self-esteem and the exhausting effects of socialising. Ilse Sand also encourages you to explore and appreciate the advantages of high sensitivity, including your aptitude for depth, intensity and presence, and suggests activities to calm and inspire.

THE BOY FROM HELL Life with a Child with ADHD ALISON M. THOMPSON FOREWORD BY RORY BREMNER FEB 2016 • 184pp • pb • £9.99• $16.95 9781785920158 • ebook-9781784502577

An unexpectedly honest personal account of the challenges and triumphs of raising a child with ADHD For Alison, life with her son Daniel sometimes seemed like an endless round of difficulties: disobedience, backchat, rudeness, name-calling and aggression. Upon starting school, where his aggression and lack of concentration concerned teachers, Daniel was given a vague diagnosis of borderline Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), which was later changed to ADHD with secondary Oppositional Defiant Disorder and autistic traits. In this honest account of the first 18 years of Daniel’s life, Alison exposes her own worries, doubts, and exceptional courage at every pivotal turn in Daniel’s life. Interspersing the narrative with tips and advice on what she has found useful - or not - in bringing up Daniel, Alison also provides encouraging guidance for teachers and fellow parents.

High achievers from the acting, singing, athletic and business worlds come together in this collection to talk about the challenges and strengths that dyslexia has presented them with throughout their lives 23 very well-known people from the arts, sport, and business worlds talk about how dyslexia affected their childhood, how they were able to overcome the challenges and use the special strengths of dyslexia to achieve great success in adulthood. Darcey Bussell CBE, Eddie Izzard, Sir Richard Branson, Meg Mathews, Zoe Wanamaker CBE, Richard Rogers, Benjamin Zephaniah, Steven Naismith, Lynda La Plante CBE, Sir Jackie Stewart OBE, Sophie Conran and others share their stories, and their advice.

All reveal the enormous difficulties they faced, the strength required to overcome them, the crucial importance of adult support, and how `the different way the brain is wired’ in dyslexia has enabled them to see something different in the world and to use their creativity in an exceptional way. They talk about `thinking sideways’, and the ability to look at a bigger picture, the often strong visual strength, and the ability to listen, and to grasp simplicity where other people see only complexity. They also talk about how dyslexia continues to challenge them, and the ways they have found to work around this.

An introduction, and final section that includes practical information about dyslexia, are written with the support of Dyslexia Action, and a percentage of profit from the book is donated to Dyslexia Action. The book will be essential reading for teachers and other professionals, and for families affected by dyslexia, and inspirational for people with dyslexia.

‘Clear and inspirational hope for anyone with a dyslexic child. Like many excellent books it is written from personal experience. I strongly recommend it.’

The author argues that a more obvious application of theory to autism intervention would be beneficial to practitioners. With access to the complete range of available autism and Asperger syndrome theory, from development theories to learning style theories, the academics and students working towards the practical application of theory to intervention will have all the necessary information at their disposal.

This is the first comprehensive book to explain to education professionals the legal requirement to follow the MCA COP and SEND COP guidelines when formally considering a young person’s (16 - 25) capacity to make decisions about their education. Using education-focussed case studies throughout to illustrate key points, this practical guide explains the MCA five principles, defines the term ‘mental capacity’ and clarifies the circumstances in which a young person would lack capacity to make a decision. It describes when a capacity assessment is likely to be required and presents a step-by-step guide to undertaking a capacity assessment.

This is the essential guide to the MCA for FE college tutors, post 16 teachers, specialist teachers, local authority SEN officers and educational psychologists.

‘This book is clear and informative. It offers practical examples to develop the reader’s understanding of the importance of the Mental Capacity Act and its interplay with the SEND Code Of Practice. It should be essential reading for education staff, Local Authority staff including SEN officers as well as social service staff and health professionals who work with children and young people in educational contexts from Key Stage 4 onwards.’

- Karen Flanagan, County SEN Manager (Assessment and Placement), Kent County Council

WHY JOHNNY DOESN’T FLAP NT is OK! CLAY MORTON AND GAIL MORTON ILLUSTRATED BY ALEX MERRY 2015 • 32pp • hb • £9.99• $16.95 9781849057219 • ebook-9781784501907

A gently satirical picture book for all ages demonstrating that where neurological difference is concerned there is no ‘normal’ Johnny is different. He is never exactly on time, he can’t seem to stick to a routine and he often speaks in cryptic idioms. Johnny is neurotypical, but that’s OK. A picture book with a difference, Why Johnny Doesn’t Flap turns the tables on common depictions of neurological difference by drolly revealing how people who are not on the autistic spectrum are perceived by those who are. The autistic narrator’s bafflement at his neurotypical friend’s quirks shows that ‘normal’ is simply a matter of perspective.

A delightful departure from the norm, Why Johnny Doesn’t Flap flips the script and models empathy, acceptance, and compassion for that oddest of neurologies, the neurotypical. This irreverent subversion is a breath of fresh air, and reminds us that there’s not a right way to have a brain, and that ‘normal’ is in the eye of the beholder.

We’re better off with a dose of the Mortons’ wry perspective.’

Dylan Emmons’ insightful memoir looks back to his childhood on the autism spectrum and his attempts to masquerade as neurotypical Dylan Emmons has always lived his life in two worlds. Diagnosed with Asperger’s at the age of six, his school days were spent struggling to overcome the sensory and social hurdles that made fitting in with his classmates in the ‘real world’ so hard. An aspiring social chameleon, he attempted to blend in, despite his hidden other world of Asperger’s. This book tells the story of his attempt, with the hindsight gained in adult life that it is better to spend energy learning to be happy, than learning to be ‘normal’.

By describing the two conflicting worlds of his childhood, Dylan Emmons reveals the reasons behind the actions, mood swings and awkwardness of children on the autism spectrum that can often appear mysterious and unprovoked to neurotypical family members, friends, teachers and professionals.

‘Candid and humorous, he offers an instructive look at what it’s like to grow up with Asperger’s, trying to live in two worlds and never feeling fully at home in either. Readers will be rooting for him long after they turn the last page.’

Thoughtfully and beautifully written, this sequel to Running with Walker offers an important portrayal of adult life with lowfunctioning autism and the associated challenges Most people would describe Walker Hughes as warm, enthusiastic and charismatic - even if he doesn’t say very much. But after several happy years living in a group home, Walker descended into a deep unhappiness, and his parents were told that their son with low-functioning autism was ‘unmanageable’ and a danger to others. Where did it all go wrong?

From the author of Running with Walker, this witty and touching memoir tells a story of crisis and recovery of a young man with low-functioning autism. Battling miscommunication, misinterpreted behaviour and a lack of appropriate services, Walker and his parents’ resilience shines through, providing a much-needed portrayal about what life is like for adults with low-functioning autism, and how we can understand the complex personalities of people with communication difficulties.

‘Beneath the surface of outrage toward a society that does so little for our most vulnerable people, Hughes graciously elevates the good in the human spirit each time he finds it.’

An emotional, insightful account of raising a child with Pathological Demand Avoidance Syndrome (PDA) Jane Alison Sherwin’s honest and uplifting account provides insight into the challenges of bringing up a child with Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA).

After years of misdiagnosis, Jane’s daughter, Mollie, was diagnosed with PDA at the age of seven, and we follow her experiences pre and post diagnosis to age 10 as she attends school, interacts with the outside world and approaches adolescence. Throughout, Jane provides commentary on her daughter’s behaviour and the impact it has on her family, explaining the ‘why’ of PDA traits, including the need for control, meltdowns, obsessive behaviour and sensory issues.

She reveals the strategies that have worked for Mollie and provides essential advice and information on obtaining a diagnosis and raising awareness of PDA. The book also includes an interview with Mollie.

Full of advice and support, and with a focus on understanding the child and how he or she sees the world, this book will be of immeasurable value to the parents and families of children with PDA as well as the professionals working with them, particularly teachers and teaching assistants, SEN co-ordinators, psychologists, outreach workers and social workers.

‘The author outlines the strategies that she has developed to cope with Mollie’s meltdowns and anxieties and her ‘huge issues’ with sleep... Sherwin writes frankly about how Mollie’s PDA has affected her personally and her family and this book is a moving and informative guide.’

The definitive handbook on dyscalculia and numeracy difficulties, explaining what to teach and how to teach it Dyscalculia is a specific learning difficulty that affects the acquisition of numerical skills. A far larger number of pupils, while not dyscalculic, fail to acquire the basic numerical skills required for everyday life.

Whatever the cause of poor numeracy it is essential that these difficulties are identified and addressed. This book looks at how adults can help identify each child’s specific areas of difficulty and describes a multi-sensory approach that can be adapted for the needs of each student to help them better understand numbers and apply that understanding to solve problems. It covers the origins of number sense and how the brain deals with numbers, assessment, planning intervention, what to teach and how to teach it, and how parents can help their children.

This straightforward guide will be essential reading for any parent, teacher or education professional working with a child with dyscalculia or numeracy difficulties.

‘What a great book! Divided into two clear sections, the first half gives a very accessible and useful overview and explanation of a range of difficulties impacting on numeracy.

The second half of the book then focuses on ‘how to teach it’ in an easy-to-understand, step-by-step layout using verbal, visual, and multisensory strategies useful for so many learners. It also includes a really useful chapter for parents and carers on how to support their children at home. I would be happy to recommend it to my colleagues in school.’

A fascinating insight into how colour coding can help young people with autism to create a sense of order, reduce anxiety and aid communication Children on the autism spectrum are often highly visual learners, making colour a powerful and motivating learning tool.

RETHINKING AUTISM Diagnosis, Identity and Equality EDITED BY KATHERINE RUNSWICKCOLE, REBECCA MALLETT & SAMI TIMIMI MAY 2016 • 336pp • pb • £18.99• $27.95 9781849055819 • ebook-9781784500276

Challenges the existing models of autism, the practices related to them, including diagnosis, `treatment’, and societal attitudes - essential reading for all professionals in the field Challenging existing approaches to autism that limit, and sometimes damage, the individuals who attract and receive the label, this book questions the lazy prejudices and assumptions that can surround autism as a diagnosis in the 21st Century.

Arguing that autism can only be understood through examining ‘it’ as a socially or culturally produced phenomenon, the authors offer a critique of the medical model that has produced a perpetually marginalising approach to autism, and explain the contradictions and difficulties inherent in existing attitudes. They examine and dispute the scientific validity of diagnosis and ‘treatment’, asking whether autism actually exists at the biological level, and question the value of diagnosis in the lives of those labelled with autism. The book recognises that there are no easy answers but encourages engagement with these essential questions, and looks towards service provision and practice that moves beyond a reliance on all-encompassing labels.

This unique contribution to the growing field of critical autism studies brings together authors from clinical psychiatry, clinical and community psychology, social sciences, disability studies, education and cultural studies, as well as those with personal experiences of autism. It is essential and challenging reading for anyone with a personal, professional or academic interest in ‘autism’.

‘The authors wear their radical hearts on their sleeves. They promise to thoroughly deconstruct the conventional wisdom about this new “epidemic” in our midst, and... they succeed admirably.’

- Robert Whitaker, author of Anatomy of an Epidemic: Magic Bullets

A personal account of the therapeutic power of horses to overcome post-traumatic stress and transform an autistic world

A powerful and clear explanation of autistic ‘obsessions’ from a first-hand perspective

Susan Dunne’s life changed forever when a chance question from a doctor led her back to horses, an unfulfilled childhood passion. Detached and isolated due to undiagnosed autism, Susan had already survived rape, battled eating disorders and self-harm, and spent time homeless, when her world was turned upside again by a vicious, life-threatening assault. Severe post-traumatic stress disorder left her feeling distrustful and more cut off than ever before from a world she saw as confusing and dangerous. But as Susan’s connection with horses grew stronger, her world started to open up.

Julia Bascom offers a rare and powerful insight into the joys of autistic obsessions. Her writing will resonate powerfully with other autistic people, and encourage those who have a person with autism in their lives to look out for and nurture that joy.

After 25 years of marriage to a man with Asperger Syndrome (ASD), ‘Herscue Bergenstreiml’ has more than a few tales to tell “I knew this guy was out of the square. He was so far out, he was in the hexagonal prism that was past the triangle next to the square.”

When the author met her future husband, she was instantly charmed by his intensity, wacky conversation choices, and innate desire to create peculiar names. Seventeen years, one wedding, one baby and several adopted names later, it began to dawn on ‘Herscue’ that family jokes about her husband having Asperger’s Syndrome may be closer to the truth than she had first imagined.

Filled with moving and hilarious tales, one of which provides the origins of the author and her husband’s adopted names, Herscue and Jomphrey, and their even stranger pronunciations, this personal account grapples with the highs and lows of a 25 year marriage to an Aspie husband.

The essential information on how deep pressure works and choosing an effective and safe weighted blanket Providing everything you need to know about the use of weighted blankets to help with sensory integration, improve sleep, ease chronic pain and more, this book includes: • What a weighted blanket is and how it works • An exploration of deep pressure and how weight on the body affects the mind • Guidelines for using weighted blankets at home and in professional environments • Studies into the effectiveness of weighted blankets • Advice on how to select an appropriate weighted blanket or sew your own.

Based on the latest research, this book dispels the online myths surrounding weighted blankets. It delivers clear information for occupational therapists and anyone considering using a weighted blanket to help with sensory processing disorder, autism, sleep disorders, fibromyalgia, post-traumatic stress disorder, and more.

‘When I was a child, I craved deep pressure and I liked lots of blankets on the bed to help me sleep. When I got older, I built a squeeze machine to apply deep pressure to help calm me. Sensory problems are very variable. A weighted blanket is likely to be most effective for children or adults who seek deep pressure. For children with an autism diagnosis, some individuals will respond well to a weighted blanket and for others it will have little effect.

This book contains lots of good practical advice on how to use and make weighted blankets.

It will be a great resource for individuals who are calmed by deep pressure.’

A comprehensive, authoritative resource on understanding and resolving self-injurious behavior (SIB) in people with autism and related conditions, with contributions by top experts Self-injurious behavior occurs in almost half of those with autism and is one of the most devastating and challenging-to-treat behaviors. There are many different forms of self-injury, such as head banging, hand biting, hair pulling, excessive scratching, and much more. With contributions from the leading experts in research and treatment, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of self-injurious behavior (SIB) in people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or related developmental disabilities, and the different methods available to treat them.

Medical and behavioral researchers have studied SIB for over 50 years, but many practitioners and parents are still unfamiliar with the wide range of contributing causes and treatment options. Beginning with an explanation of SIB and its various forms, the contributors outline the many possible underlying causes of self-injury, such as seizures, hormonal imbalance in teenagers, gastrointestinal conditions, allergies, and stress, and show how a multi-disciplinary approach when uncovering the causes of self-injury can lead to successful treatment strategies.

They explain the treatment options available for SIB, including nutritional, medical, psychiatric, sensory, and behavioral approaches, and show how an integrative approach to treating self-injury may be effective for many individuals.

Berger reveals how Eurhythmics, a method of teaching the musical concepts of rhythm, structure and expression kinaesthetically through movement, can help develop sensorimotor skills in children and adults with autism and other special needs.

Covering both theory and practice, she explains this innovative, music-based approach and how it can also address cognitive and sensory issues in adults with debilitating conditions, such as dementia or post-traumatic stress disorder. With a particular emphasis on autism, she provides clear and adaptable session plans, suitable for working with children and adults of all ages.
