‘To me as a parent, this book is a godsend – clear, logical, easy to read and above all useful!

It addresses a fundamental problem which is of concern to many parents: How can we, in practical terms, help our children learn to express and communicate their emotions, especially when they reach their teenage years and beyond?

Grounded on a solid base of expertise, experience and compassionate understanding, the authors offer a clear, insightful, structured solution. The sessions described in the book are easy to understand and equally easy to implement. They will go a long way to help our young people with Asperger’s syndrome (autism spectrum disorder) understand the “rules of the game” and thereby achieve a more level playing field.’

‘A million thanks to Attwood and Garnett for writing this illuminating and user-friendly book that will surely help caregivers teach adolescents with Asperger’s syndrome how to recognize and share emotions and affection in positive, nourishing and healthy ways.’
