Today’s review is not a toy review but a special book review to bring to light a book which will be helpful for both children and parents of children with Autism. "Caring For Myself: A Social Skills Storybook" by Christy Gast is a book written specifically to explain the "simple" routines that we as adults go through on a day to day basis, while these routines are exactly that, routine, to us, they are often times extremely challenging as well as fear instilling for children who have autism. This wonderful book brings to the forefront the detailed routines which are a mandatory part of taking care of yourself in a way that is both non-threatening and easy to understand.
