For the last three decades, parents and professionals have learned to write Social Stories to accurately share information, teach, and praise children, adolescents, and adults with autism. Developed in 1991 by Carol Gray, today Social Stories are an internationally-respected and popular evidence-based instructional strategy.
What if the tables were turned? In A Social Story for the Rest of Us, Carol merges her expertise and experience as an autism consultant as she describes with disarming honesty what "the rest of us" need to know to work effectively on behalf of those in our care. She describes how every person with autism is 'unique twice': once as a human being, and again as a person with autism. This is a story our children with autism want us to read, remember, and implement as we work with them.
