My school psychologist friend recommended this book to me (among others 😂) and I love this book for what it is supposed to be. Helping us neurotypical people teach social skills and rules to help our neurodiverse students. They have step by step lesson plans laid out. 👍
I don't know what I was expecting from this book, but it was so bland I couldn't process the words on the page. I had to keep rereading sentences to get simple, simple concepts.
Nothing in here struck me as earth-shatteringly insightful. If I had to come up with methods and games to teach kids about non-verbal communication, it'd be pretty much the same stuff they came up with. Or you would probably come up with.
The purpose of this book is to teach nonverbal language in an easy to understand manner so that adults can in turn help children to develop good social skills. As a therapist and a parent, I found it very helpful.
