very informative!

My 10 year has just had a diagnosis of Autism. I was looking for some information that would be useful to her, to use in her every day life but also for me to help understand some of the struggles past & future. some chapters in this book my daughter is not ready for & I have told her as such but I will revisit them with her when I feel the time is right.

BRILLIANT 💯 Genius

Wish we had this book 6 years ago.
It could have saved us an awful lot of heart ache, both mental & physical pain. Totally recommend to parents, grandparents, teachers siblings and most importantly teenage autistic girls - this truly is already and will be a saviour for many more girls and their families- Thank You Siena ❤️🙏🏻❤️

Great book

I highly recommend this book for all teens, parents and teachers - not only those with ASC. Some really solid advice, that will enhance everyones understanding of some of the challenges of growing up in a neurotypical world.
