Empowering Children With Autism Spectrum and Other Neurological Disorders to Monitor and Replace Aggression and Tantrum Behavior
by Christopher Lynch, PhD

Moms Choice Award winner! When parenting, teaching and working with children who have social, emotional and/or sensory sensitivities, we often put the emphasis on learning new skills. Countless hours are spent working on social skills, fine- and gross-motor skills, language skills and academic skills, but stress management skills are often left unaddressed. This is unfortunate, as stress can create a multitude of challenges for learning and daily living. In other words, it can create barriers to the very things we are trying to teach. Besides, it can cause distress, which can lead to meltdowns and behavioral outbursts. In short, it is crucial that children learn and develop skills to help them to manage their stress as independently as possible. Totally Chill: My Complete Guide to Staying Cool is a stress management workbook that is meant to be read, completed and used as much as possible by children themselves. Its fun graphics and interactive style make it ideal for children grades 3 through middle school. ISBN 9781937473044 | Code 9079 | Price: $21.95

This interactive book, designed to be completed by a student or adult with social challenges, along with a support person, focuses on breaking down skills or behaviors and then putting them back together again into a manageable whole, as a way to efficiently process social situations, leading to more effective social skills. Many people who have difficulties with social cognition, including those on the autism spectrum, are not able to see the big picture of a situation. That is, they tend to focus, or even hyper-focus, on the details within the larger whole of a concept, conversation, story, picture or situation, and have difficulty recognizing the main idea, topic or general point. Big Picture Thinking was written to help students with cognitive deficits see how individual pieces of social information fit into a larger context, so that they may begin to become big picture thinkers and, therefore be more successful.

New Textbook Facilitating Early Communication, Language, and Social Skills:

From Theory to Practice
AAPC TEXTBOOKS
46
by Pamela Rosenthal Rollins, MS CCC-SLP, EdD

Consistent with the Social Communication Emotional Regulation and Transactional Supports (SCERTS) model (Prizant et al.), the developmental social-pragmatic approach to facilitating language and social communication presented in this textbook makes a major contribution to the training and support of young children on the autism spectrum, ages 3-5. While the focus is on the preschool environment, suggestions are provided for how to extend the approach to the home and other environments where the child spends time. ISBN 9781937473846 | Code 9512 | Textbook | Price: $72.95
New Textbook The Comprehensive Autism Planning System (CAPS) for Individuals With Autism Spectrum Disorders and Related Disabilities
Integrating Evidence-Based Practices Throughout the Students Day by Shawn A. Henry and Brenda Smith Myles, PhD
This system allows educators to understand how to implement an instructional program for students with ASD. Known as CAPS, the model answers common questions about finding the right supports to fit a childs learning style in order to help him reach his full potential. Used with The Ziggurat Model, CAPS enables educators and other professionals to address adequate yearly progress (AYP), response to intervention (RTI), and positive behavior support (PBS). ISBN 9781937473761 | Code 9510 | Price: $44.95 Also available as an ebook!
New Textbook Autism as Context Blindness

by Peter Vermeulen, PhD
According to Peter Vermeulen, treatment of autism is still too focused on behavior and minimally focused on observation or determining the way of thinking that leads to the behavior. In this groundbreaking book, inspired by the ideas of Uta Frith, internationally known psychologist and a pioneer in theory of mind as it relates to autism, Vermeulen explains in everyday terms how the autistic brain functions, with a particular emphasis on the apparent lack of sensitivity to and awareness of the context in which things happen. Full of examples, often humorous, the book goes on to examine context as it relates to observation, social interactions, communication and knowledge. The book concludes with a major section on how to reduce context blindness in these various areas, vital for successful functioning. ISBN 9781937473457 | Code 9508 | Price: $44.95 Also available as an ebook!

The Ziggurat Model, Release 2.0
by Ruth Aspy, PhD, and Barry Grossman, PhD; foreword by Gary Mesibov, PhD, director of Division TEACCH
It is relatively easy to find information describing specific interventions, but it is difficult to find information on how to develop a comprehensive intervention plan. This textbook presents a process and framework for designing interventions for individuals of all ages with ASD while staying consistent with recent special education trends, including response to intervention (RTI), evidencebased practices, and positive behavioral supports. This updated and expanded version includes the latest research, a special section on Ziggurat-CAPS integration (written by Brenda Smith Myles and Shawn Henry), and a new version of the Underlying Characteristics Checklist for Early Intervention (UCC-EI). ISBN 9781934575963 | Code 9502 | Textbook | Price: $72.95 Also available as an ebook!

Social Skills Programming Building Social Relationships

A Systematic Approach to Teaching Social Interaction Skills to Children and Adolescents With Autism Spectrum Disorders and Other Social Difficulties
by Scott Bellini, PhD

Based on an ASA Award winner! Building Social Relationships: A Systematic Approach to Teaching Social Interaction Skills to Children and Adolescents With Autism Spectrum Disorders and Other Social Difficulties addresses the critical need for social skills programming for children and adolescents with ASD and other social difficulties. The book is unique in presenting a comprehensive model that incorporates five fundamental steps: assess social functioning, distinguish between skill acquisition and performance deficits, select intervention strategies, implement intervention, and evaluate and monitor progress. Rather than promoting a single strategy, the model details how to organize and make sense of the myriad social skills programs and resources available.
