The first comprehensive guide to working with teens and young adults living with this complex disorder offers reassurance, solace, and, most important, practical solutions. Following up on the work in their acclaimed first book, Overcoming Autism, which offered advice for teaching young autistic children, Lynn Koegel and her writing partner, Claire LaZebnik, address universal parental concerns, from first crushes, a changing body, and the challenge of being socially appropriate, to how to succeed in college and beyond. Growing Up on the Spectrum is the beacon of hope and wisdom for parents, therapists, and educators alike. Book jacket.
