About this listen

Do you know children who get upset when their routines change? They might also struggle to see the big picture, make friends, solve a problem in real time, and read nonverbal communication. Meltdowns, tantrums, and other challenging behaviors might be common.

This audiobook was designed to teach you how making small shifts in your language and speaking style that will produce important results. You will stop telling kids what to do and, instead, thoughtfully give them the information to help them make important discoveries in the moment. These moments build resilience, flexibility, and positive relationships over time.

You might be a therapist or a teacher, or you might be a parent, grandparent, or babysitter. Your child might have a diagnosis such as autism, Asperger’s Syndrome, ADHD, or nonverbal learning disability. But they might not. No matter your child’s learning style, this audiobook will help you feel equipped to make a difference, simply by being mindful of your own communication and speaking style.

Great book

I highly recommend this book. Very concise and informative, easy to underestand. I'm confident the guidances provided in the book will help me and my son to have a new way of communication and also will help him to build up his self confident.

flipped

the narrator sounds like a robot reading it. the pace and tone are pretty flat, she doesnt pause at the right time so it sounds like shes reading ahead of herself then realises that shes missed the pause. the book itself is very good

Content spoiled by narration

Found it difficult to enjoy learning the important content of this book due to the narrator. Partner and I thought it was AI until I checked. Such a shame for the author.
