Book Description

Visual communications. Award-winning children’s book about special love named "Best Picture Book with a Message." 32 wonderfully illustrated pages with the special message for all families that "just because someone is different, doesn't mean they're loved any differently." Autographed by author.

Special Kids is America’s original speech and skill building video programs created specifically for special needs children.

Boys and girls, from infancy through teens, with autism spectrum disorder, Down Syndrome, mental retardation, cerebral palsy, dyslexia and other learning disabilities — from more than 50 countries — have all benefited.

First created by a parent of a boy with autism — which produced a breakthrough that generated excitement around the world —

Special Kids speech and skill building video programs have been demonstrated to help many visual learners acquire verbal, reading, writing, academic, motor, play, self-help, social and interactive skills.

Special Kids 30-minute programs utilize concept-to-language association, object-to language association, action-to-language association, labeling, sequencing, modeling and generalization — video methods now proven effective in numerous university and hospital sponsored studies of high-visual special needs audiences.

Whether your special needs child is 18 months, or 18 years, active intervention is vital today — because today can be another day learning. And with Special Kids helping them, anything’s possible.

This review is from: Jeffrey and the Despondent Dragon (Paperback)
As a parent of a son with autism, I found this book in a great way healing. It truly shows love lives on even if our dreams and agendas need revised. My son often picks this as a favorite. I would suggest this book to all parents.
