MY SISTER IS DIFFERENT: A sibling's guide to coping with Autism

MY SISTER IS DIFFERENT How do you explain to the sibling of an AUTISTIC child that their sister's behavior is not their fault? How do you convey that the guilt and confusion they may feel towards their AUTISTIC sibling are in fact, OK? MY SISTER IS DIFFERENT breaks new ground by tackling this rarely discussed subject. While there are numerous books on the market focused on Autism, there are few if any about the often deeply-conflicted emotions of the sibling of an Autistic child, until now. Filled with illustrations, the book contains three sections. The first written in rhyme, aims to assist the sibling(s) work through their emotions. The second provides parents with a roadmap for starting a dialog with their children. The final section of the book instructs parents on how to replace the child's negative feelings with positive action.
