First Review of Get Out, Explore, Have Fun

It will be months before the book comes out, but because Jessica Kingsley Publishing has already sent out galley copies, the first review is in.  Autism blogger "Whitterer on Autism" offers a really positive response to the book - highlighting its practicality and positive perspective:

Sometimes you read the title of a book and cringe inside – ‘great concept but how exactly am I supposed to do that?’ Lisa Jo fails to give me a glib reply – no, ‘how to fix it quick’ response, which is precisely why this book is readable, helpful and practical.

Lisa Jo gives us an in-depth and well considered approach to help us change how we think about some of the difficulties we face when it comes to ‘getting out and about.’ Her ‘no nonsense’ approach is refreshing and I particularly warmed to the underlying philosophy – yes all autistic children need education and some need therapy, but not to the exclusion of everything else that life has to offer....


Are you a blogger interested in reviewing the book before it hits bookstands?  If so, let me know and I'll try to get you a copy ASAP!
