Ok, I’m not asking for myself here. I’m a very late diagnosed autistic adult, and I’ve been asked to recommend a helpful book—preferably one that embraces the neurodiversity paradigm—for the overwhelmed father of an early Primary School age autistic boy. The father is a widower and his son is also physically disabled. I have a whole library of books about autism, but they’re almost all about and/or by late-diagnosed autistic adults who didn’t have significant learning difficulties or behavioural ‘issues’ as children. Can anyone recommend something good? The child’s diagnosis is recent and I get the impression that the father knows very little about autism. (I should say the father’s an academic so don’t worry about level of difficulty.)
