Best book on social skills for individuals on the Spectrum I have ever read!
Hands down, the best book on social skills for teens (and adults) on the Spectrum I have ever read, and as a clinical psychologist, I've read several. Ms. Cook's approach is deeply supportive, insightful, humerous, and hopeful. I recommend this book to anyone on the Spectrum, anyone with a family member on the Spectrum, or anyone isna relationship with someone on the Spectrum.
