“This has been a really helpful, and easy to understand book which has helped me and my family to understand why my Aspergers daughter has meltdowns and what causes them. We use it as tool to discuss with her why she has meltdowns and how best to see them coming, so avoiding them at times but, should it still happen, how best we can see her through them.
