New Interactive Short Story Books Designed For Children With Aspergers Syndrome

My name is Chant Haldane, and known through Dannie ' s Mum. Dannie and I have been through populous experiences which I ' m sure these books will disclose. Dannie is now 17 and doing very fine in her 6th die, filly has achieved so much over the gone 17 years and I am so great of her, some of it hasn ' t been easy which I ' m sure Dannie will shake on but we persevered and we are now in a position to help others in the alike situation.

Span Dannie was growing up, I establish it very arduous to find unit examples of unquestionably how Asperger ' s Syndrome would induce Dannie on a daily basis, there are copious websites and books which will vouchsafe you the ins and outs of all the medical vernacular you can hilt, but no actual examples.

I launch myself on alive with occasions application myself over and over, " Fine I understand that the children take people literally, but exactly how do they do this. " I unfortunately found no answers, thus Dannie ' s Dilemmas was born, giving examples galore of how Asperger ' s affects Dannie in everyday situations, how I myself dealt with these actions.

Dannie and I put our brains together and came up with the interactive idea where the reader would decide Dannie ' s actions, thus giving the reader the possibility of two separate outcomes. This we hope will show others that there are always other ways to deal with situations.

The idea behind the shopping trip, well I suppose it has many factors, for the children I wanted to show that we understand the difficulty they face in having to wait their turn, and that making decisions can be hard at times. We wanted to show that Dannie has the same ideas and thoughts as they do, hopefully making it clear that there are ways round the difficulties that they face on a daily basis.

For the parents we tried to show the childs prospective on how what we say can be taken in many different views, and hopefully show that sometimes what the child says is not meant to be argumentative or said to cause trouble.

The idea behind The Right Shoes, well this too has many factors, for the children I wanted to show that it is better to inform someone if the feel they are being judged and mistreated in any way, also that it is better to try and explain their thoughts on different subjects, in this case the way Dannie feels about buying new shoes.

For the parents we tried to show that even with the best intentions in the world, we try to gain peoples patience when it comes to dealing with a child who needs just a little extra time, sometimes what we say just makes the matter worse for the children and how some people will continue to treat our kids wrong.

The following review is from a loving parent Adrienne.

What a wonderful insight, to how a young girl perceives the world with Aspergers. How difficult it is to control her emotions with family and the Neuro typical world, without getting into trouble.

Dannie ' s stories, provide, explain and clarify how she has to deal with everything from the time she wakes up in the morning, to getting through the day and dealing with people who just don ' t understand her let alone get her.

Yes it can be frustrating for parents to have to keep reminding Asperger kids what they have to do, why they react in a certain way, but at the end of the day, Dannie ' s Mum was always there for her, and had her best interest at heart.

I truly enjoyed reading these stories, so much so that I happened to be in a toy shop today with both my kiddies ( Paul 7 autism, Rachel 5 hearing difficulties ) and I applied the situation that given 3 choices to pick a toy they want to swap. I had to tailor it a little differently but the idea worked.

Karen thank you so much for letting me be one of the members to pre - read the book. Well done to Dannie for having the courage to do the stories, which exposed so much of herself, how she sees the world and how the world deals with her. To Dannie ' s supports for providing a guidance to her.

The book made me laugh, teary and gave me another insight to my own son and how he thinks and the way he may view the world around him.

Good luck with these stories, and heres to may more that may arrive in the near future. Well Done to all involved and for a job well done.

The Benefits Of Children ' s Bible Story Books

Starting at an early age, reading to children helps them sense new words and assists them with their talking skills. It besides vastly strengthens the relationship between child and parent for they spend quiet quality time together. However, if you cinch to use children ' s bible story books, the benefits are flush greater. Bible stories are compelling instruments for teaching your child about God. A child ' s way of thinking will be impacted in a cold fashion through Bible stories by helping them establish a view of the world that is God centered, rather than self - centered.

As your child gains the ability to read, Bible stories can continue to play an important role in their development. They will quickly find inspiring role models while reading the stories. The stories are usually action oriented and will keep your child ' s attention focused on what they are reading. They will go on to develop the habit of looking towards God for wisdom when they come up against problems and discover the answers to many questions that will arise, such as why we exist and our origins. The Bible will be a source of reference when they begin to make choices among their peers. There are more to bible stories that good reading content. Bible stories are designed to teach children how to apply biblical principles to their lives.

Children ' s bible story books are of course much more than just good reading material to help the young mind to flourish. They are a positive introduction to Bible reading as they go on to learn the principles of their faith. The disciplines of prayer and Bible study will become a natural part of a child ' s daily routine when they are introduced to them as ways to communicate with and learn about God. With a little guidance they can quickly gain an understanding of sin and develop conscious behaviors to assist them in their spiritual growth. An introduction to a few Proverbs can also inspire your child to become a regular user of the Bible. In proverbs, Solomon wrote valuable instructions for his own children that are considered to still be highly relevant today. Proverbs 3, 15, 21 and 22 are good places to start.

Next time you go to purchase any reading material for your child, whatever the age, consider children ' s bible story books. No child is too young or too old to discover God and all the many benefits that will follow.

The Impact of Lewis Carroll ' s Alice books on society and literature

The Alice books have got their place in literary history. The popular success of Tim Burton ' s recent 3D film reminds me that this Victorian story has never gone out of fashion. Since Charles Dodgson, reclining on a punt in Oxford, told the tale to Alice Liddell ( age 5 or 6 ) it has become the rudimentary English children ' s tale in a land famous for its children ' s stories. It is also one of the few English children ' s stories that facet a daredevil. It so inspired his contemporaries that divers stories beguiling up the spun wool of Alice ' s adventures appeared in commit pdq close Alice In Wonderland was published. The praise of girls ' literature may have been stimulated at the turn of the century, for instance with annuals and magazines. Alice In Wonderland offered comfort and security, particularly during the raging of world wars, being widely and painfully scan. During the nineteen - fifties, in a search for a new and brutal writing, its likely she was relegated to the nursery. Alice became less attractive to English school examiners, being quite nonsensical and no one seemed to connect the ' Twas brillig, and the slithy toves... ' of Lewis Carroll to the language James Joyce was credited with inventing although now it is easy ( to see ) Carroll ' s influence on him. But Alice was not to remain in the nursery for long. This reversed in the last two decades of the century, with children ' s books selling in greater quantities, and thus scholarship from GCE to PhD again embraced it. More research developed on Lewis Carroll, his mathematics, poetry and his sources, and cults emerged and increased into the new millennium. Along with the attention given to this rather darker side of Alice and her adventures, there are of course its detractors who point out that photographs Lewis Carroll took of young girls, although always in proper Victorian dress, bordered on paedophilia. much has been written on the ' other side ' of the Victorian era known, thanks to Queen Victoria herself, for its moral rectitude. What really happened in the lives of ordinary folk is more likely to be learned from letters, family histories, personal journals and autobiographies than well - known novelists, such as Dickens and the Brontes. Publishers in those days toed the conventional line. Today, with members of the Catholic clergy revealed as prime perpetrators, we can take a more liberal approach to Lewis Carroll ' s photographs and his open love and admiration for young girls. Like Catholic priests, he was childless and these photographs could have been a way into the World of Children through which he had to peer in order to champion them. And champion them he did. The sadistic repression of young Victorian ladies was cruel, both at home and at school. When he advised his young charges to go paddling with him at the beach, even bringing them safety pins with which to tie up their voluminous petticoats, we can draw two conclusions. Either he had a passion for their ankles or he simply wanted to see them run about and enjoy the freedom of the beach, which was only just becoming socially acceptable as a prerequisite for it being popular. Carroll ' s Alice was never able to leave home and go in search of adventure, she is a heroine who may never escape ' the nothingness '; a little girl who will always reside in the never - never land of childhood. Though - Alice in Wonderland -, the film, also sees Alice as a nubile young girl with the possibility of a real life before her, although this possibility does not appear until the very end of the movie.

Ramble: Books and E-Books

I own seventeen e-books. (And how do you spell and punctuate that word?!) On principle, I disapprove of e-books. The fact that my copy of the book will go away when the technology goes away, the fact that I can't bring them to the used bookstore, the fact that I can't lend them or only lend them so many times, the fact that some books could go to a pure e-book publication and that when those books go out of copyright they could be flat-out lost forever. All that is bad. But I downloaded the Kindle reader for Mac and for my phone, and bought a cheap out-of-copyright e-book to play with them with. And then I bought another e-book at a moderately discounted price. And then I bought one at the ridiculous (given the extremely low per-unit cost for e-books) full price. And now, a few months later, I have seventeen of the things. Three technical, two how-to, one self-help, one reference, five novels, three biographical nonfiction, two "other nonfiction." So I disapprove of them, but I have seventeen, and I'm reading more than I was before, and reading relatively new books (which I rarely did before), and authors are making more money from me than before, because I used to mostly buy used books. So, well, maybe it's not such a bad thing. Except financially, for me. Well, and for my local bookstore. Eep. My original plan, as much as it could be detected mixed in with my denial that I was buying e-books at all, was to restrict my electronic buying only to those books that I don't want to own permanently in paper form anyway. There are a lot of these. The shelves are full, and while I never actually want to get rid of any book, most books must go, promptly after I've read them. Or if they stay, something else must go. Turning my head left and right, I see two stacks, representing about fifteen books, that are destined for the used bookstore. And that's just what hasn't been boxed yet. Come to think of it, fifteen is almost the count of what I've read for the 100+ Reading Challenge. So given that some of my 100+ books were electronic, and assuming that I actually drag myself to the used bookstore, I'm more than keeping up with one book in, one book out. Yay me! Um. Where was I? Oh, yes. The e-book versus paper judgement has failed three times, which is a rather high rate. I bought Betsy Lerner's Forest For The Trees (one of the "other nonfiction", about writing, though there's plenty of biographical stuff in there too) in e-book form, and I liked it so much that now I want it permanently. I should have learned my lesson, but, no, I just downloaded and finished her Food and Loathing, and while I'm letting my impressions settle out before I rush to spend more money, I think I'll want a paper copy of that one, too. I think that my recent post about writing while grumpy/cranky/angry reminded me of Betsy Lerner and sent me looking for her latest book--while Forest For The Trees wasn't all that grumpy, her blog often is, and so is Food and Loathing, and I love her writing, grumpy or non. It makes me wonder if, like it or not, I should grab a keyboard when I'm gnashing my teeth and see what comes out. And I'm in the middle of Dominique Browning's Slow Love, and judging from my fondness for two of her other books (Paths of Desire and Around the House and in the Garden) I'm also going to want that in paper form. (As a side note, I find myself wondering if I should email to the author that her website makes it impossible to link to a single specific book. Would she care?) So, really, I have no grounds for claiming surprise in the last two cases. Frankly, I just wanted the books and I wanted them now, so I downloaded them. I tell myself that I'm supporting the author. And the publisher--I have no problem supporting publishers either, I'm just more excited about supporting the authors. And by buying the things a second time on paper, I can even ease my guilt about the local bookstore, because I can order them there. So, really, everybody but my pocket wins. That'll have to be good enough. Image: By Andreas Praefcke. Wikimedia Commons.
