Book Description
Children with ASD are often confused by our world of rules and consequences, including how their behavior impacts another person or situation. The result is often aggressive behavior. The Way to A, designed for children ages 3 to 9 years old, presents a simple, logical, and systematic strategy that clarifies and sequentially teaches the child how to manage his behavior by engaging in forethought and self-analysis before acting out. What sets this strategy apart is that it then goes on to give the child a personal and concrete incentive to use the alternative behavior. Developed with visual learners in mind, the book offers the ultimate in customization ? the laminated pages may be written on and wiped clean as new situations come up. The illustrations are delightful and use the concrete nature of red and green, ?A? and ?B, ? to illustrate correct and incorrect pathways. In addition, thinking bubbles, arrows, and boxes help make the book easy to follow and understand.

It Happened on the Way to War
Author: Rye Barcott
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 1408828235
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 378
Book Description
This is a book about two forms of service that may appear contradictory: war-fighting and peacemaking, military service and social entrepreneurship. In 2001, Marine officer-in-training Rye Barcott cofounded a nongovernmental organization with two Kenyans in the Kibera slum of Nairobi. Their organization-Carolina for Kibera-grew to become a model of a global movement called participatory development, and Barcott continued volunteering with CFK while leading Marines in dangerous places. It Happened on the Way to War is a true story of heartbreak, courage, and the impact that small groups of committed citizens can make in the world.

Book Description
THIS IS A STORY ABOUT PEOPLE LIKE YOU DAYDREAMING THEY ARE SOMEONE ELSE SOMEONE WHO IS HAVING MORE FUN AND IS FINDING, OR HAS FOUND, THE WAY TO GO. Is Solomon Razor Bob Rimmer? Well, Bob is a bit older an octogeneian. But they both love all women, and like Solomon, Bob has sailed in Belize. Like Solomon, Bob has a wife who lets him write about and sleep with women like Anne Hutchinson, Elizabeth Pepys and in this story, a Vivien Leigh, look-alike all of whom died before their time. IS THIS A TRUE STORY? Bob believes that all of us have alter egos. We, not only, never stop living other people's lives celebrities or not but we live story book lives and as Peter Brook once said: "Our lives are ceaselessly interwined with narrative. The stories we tell, or hear told, or imagine are reworked into our own lives. Many of us are "wannabees." Sure, Bob wishes he had been Ian Fleming and made millions writing about James Bond. But Solomon Razor knows that his "way to go" story is true and more realistic and lovingly sexier, than any 007 missions, than Dirty Harry's or most good/bad guys including Clyde, Davy Crockett (King of the Wild Frontier) and Rhett Butler, whose names Solomon uses in his travels with various women on the Yucatan Peninsula. AS FOR YOU Will women readers wish they were Vivien Sweet, aka Scarlet O'Hara? or Myrtle Craddock aka Maggie Craddock or Phoebe Fortin aka Rarharu. One thing is sure, like Solomon Razor, most male readers would be happy to go to bed with any, or all, of them!
