This book on color coding is designed to help autistic children create order in their frequently complicated worlds. It comes with a CD-ROM that contains resources that can be printed and mounted on card... This book is a helpful aide-memoire for anyone working with autistic children in either their home or school setting... Case studies are used throughout to help show how colours might be used. These case studies give the book a welcoming, easy-read, feel... I would not hesitate to recommend this book to any new teacher or teaching assistant in the field of autism education. The more experience -practitioner might also be pleasantly surprised to discover an adaptation of an old technique, or something new.
