Siblings / Jane JOHNSON

Public ISBD Titre : Siblings : The Autism Spectrum Through Our Eyes Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jane JOHNSON, Directeur de publication ; Anne VAN RENSSELAER, Directeur de publication Editeur : Londres [Angleterre] : Jessica Kingsley Publishers Année de publication : 2010 Importance : 96 p. Présentation : ill. Format : 13,8cm x 21,5cm x 0,6cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-84905-829-2 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : VIE-E VIE-E - Vie Quotidienne - Fratrie Résumé : Growing up with a sibling on the autistic spectrum can be difficult, and the needs of a child with autism often overwhelm a family, leaving neurotypical children feeling overshadowed. For the first time, the 'neurotypical' siblings get to have their say. They recount the good, the bad, and the downright annoying in a way that all young people in a similar situation will immediately recognise. Young siblings of all ages candidly recount how being 'the neurotypical one' can be tiring, frustrating, and lonely, but equally rewarding, and every story is injected with wisdom gained by young people who often have to grow up a lot more quickly than their peers. This book is essential reading for children and teenagers with a sibling on the autistic spectrum, and for parents wishing to understand how autism in the family will affect their neurotypical child. Jane Johnson is Co-Managing Director of the Board of Directors of Thoughtful House Center for Children in Austin, Texas, and a member of the Board of Directors of the Autism Research Institute. She is the co-author, with Bryan Jepson, MD, of Changing the Course of Autism: A Scientific Approach for Parents and Physicians. She lives in New York City with her husband and three children. Anne Van Rensselaer has worked as a freelance editor and as a book packager with Jane Lahr Enterprises in New York, and has also worked for 25 years with alcoholics in recovery. Her true calling in life was to be a grandmother of three.
