Speech and language therapists and pathologists Griffin, Harris, and hodgdon, who work with children and adults on the autism spectrum, offer 40 picture scripts parents can use to motivate and extend communication, learning, and play skills in children with autism spectrum disorders who are ages three to 10. The reproducible scripts involve the typical classroom activities of drawing, cooking, building and construction games, pretend play, arts and crafts, and life skills, and use illustrations and words to break down tasks into smaller steps to make learning skills easier. The CD contains printable scripts in color. Children with other communication, language, or learning disabilities can also use them. Annotation ©2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
