Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 I got the book "All Cats Have Asperger's Syndrome". Not only did it work for Zane, but Adam read it to Zane's classmates one day. It helped everyone learn.FawnFrom: <jenniferhermanski@...> Sent: Wed, February 16, 2011 7:11:05 PMSubject: ( ) books for siblings Are there any good books or web sites out there to help children understand their siblings AS? My 10 yo dd has a lot of questions about her brother that I cant seem to find the right answers for. I am noticing she is not nearly as tolerant of him as she used to be and she is handling his aggression with aggression (puberty?) She used to be very helpful during bubbys meltdowns but now she sort of eggs him on and when I ask her to stop she tears up and says "Well then make him stop!" Anyways she really loves to read and I know that having for a big brother must be hard. I mean, big brothers are supposed to protect little sisters, not hurt or scare them, right? So I thought if could read about AS it might help her and learn to get along a little. I want them to be on good terms when moves away this summer.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 I just read this book to my 11 yr old who was recently dx with AS - it is easy to understand and I would think perfect for your daughter to read. http://www.amazon.com/Can-Tell-About-Asperger-Syndrome/dp/1843102064/ref=sr_1_1?\ s=books & ie=UTF8 & qid=1297920310 & sr=1-1 In case the link doesn't work the title is " Can I Tell You About Asperger Syndrome? " by Jude Welton Blessings, Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
