 Breaking
Autism Barriers
A Father's Story written by Bill Davis and Wendy
Goldband Schunick
This book chronicles Davis' fight to overcome autism's
physical, emotional, public, educational, and therapeutic
obstacles. Few books have every been written from
a father's perspective, and none so effectively
walk the reader through each moment of a family's
experience. Davis describes his family's personal
hell with issues like aggression, going out in public,
finances, communicating, and marriage.
Breaking Autism's Barriers highlights the hurdles
parents must jump to get a diagnosis, effective
education, skilled therapists, and funding. Families
with autism will take comfort knowing they are not
alone, and be inspired by an "ordinary"
man like Bill working to overcome autism's obstacles.

 Pec's
Manual
A manual guides the reader through the six phases
of PECS.
Developed by Lori A. Frost, MS, CCC/SLP and Andrew
S. Bondy, Ph.D., this manual guides the reader through
the six phases of PECS. The goal of PECS is to provide
children with an effective and functional method
of communication.
Using picture symbols, children learn to construct
sentences and more complex communications and thus
are more effective communicators. Children are taught
to INITIATE communication in a social context. The
emphasis on social approach sets this picture-based
system apart from more traditional systems. Most
children learn to calmly ask for what they need
within a few days of training. Many children learn
"the exchange" within their first training
session. It has been highly successful with adolescents
and adults as well as young children with a variety
of communication difficulties.
This manual includes information on rationale for
the implementation of each phase. Instructions for
constructing the pictures, discrimination training
tips, data sheets and a PECS parent handout are
also included. These elements combine to make this
a comprehensive and essential tool for proper implementation
of PECS.
