Understanding Asperger's Syndrome Through Books

Have you heard of Asperger's Syndrome? How about Attention Deficit Disorder? I've heard of Attention Deficit Disorder but Asperger's Syndrome is totally new to me. It sounded more like asparagus to me to be honest.

Asperger's Syndrome is actually one of several autism spectrum disorders, named after Hans Asperger, described children characterised by difficulties in social interaction and by restricted and stereotyped interests and activities.

Annie Books Series helps people understand these two disorders better through the eyes of the child and would be suitable for any parent, teacher, professional or child with the challenges of of Asperger's Syndrome and Attention Deficit Disorder.

One of the titles in the series, A Prairie Day with Annie, by Michelle Fatig explores the many challenges of a girl named Annie who suffers from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Inattentive Type. Students will be able to relate with Annie and her constant distractable thoughts, while wonderfully creative, frequently results in failure. As such, students with ADD will develop negative internal beliefs.

Professionals who handle children with Asperger's Syndrome and Attention Deficit Disorder have been known to use this book with children and parents to identify and understand these disorders.

Instead of just believing what you read in a paid review, why don't you drop by their website to see what they have to offer. What you see may surprise you.
