4.0 out of 5 stars A Useful & Utilitarian Book for Parents of Children w/ Needs, January 31, 2002
By 
This review is from: When I Am Away from Home (Paperback)
This is a very good idea for parents of children with special needs. It contains places to fill in all the information that someone other than yourself would need if your child was away from home. Grandma and Grandpa have all the phone numbers, contacts, likes and dislikes, bedtime, and more, all at their fingertips.

Far from being a strictly professionally oriented book, there's also places for likes and dislikes, daily routines, and places to fill in behaviors ("When I'm sad I...") and to fill in what would make the child feel certain ways ("these are situations that I feel aggressive/sad/happy/etc."). It would also be a great thing to have if your child ever needed to be hospitalized - the nurses and doctors would know exactly what your child needs, what medications s/he's taking, allergies, dietary needs, cultural considerations, etc.

This is an invaluable book if you have a child with needs that perhaps cannot communicate these things to a caregiver. I bought one for my daughter, who is autistic. The next time she visits family, this book will go with her, so that no one has any doubt about what they should do in any given situation. I highly recommend it!
