This book provides perfect guidance, advice and support for everyone who has contact with children on spectrum.

The Parents Guide to Managing Anxiety in Children with Autism is a book that I would encouraging passing on. First off, I would hate to think that your mentally ill child believes that you are managing them, so don't put this on the shelf. Secondly, there is nothing in this book that isn't in any book on helping your child with anxiety except vignettes that include an autism diagnosis. Just skip this book and find something that doesn't make it look like you're trying to manage a kid you don't understand. (If you are trying to manage a kid that you don't understand, I think you need to work on that, not on your kid's anxiety.)

Thank you so much to NetGalley and Jessica Kingsley Publishers for the E-arc copy of The Parent's Guide to Managing Anxiety in Children with Autism. What a wonderful and helpful book for a parent who has a child on the autism spectrum. I have a son who suffers from horrible anxiety due to his ASD and I found this book enlightening. It is an easy to read toolkit on how to help your child and yourself deal with the crippling anxiety that they suffer from. I love the breakdown of information into understanding why and how that anxieties are triggered. I think it is a must read for any parent who has a child with horrible anxiety.

I found this to be a really useful fascinating read which made me reconsider many aspects of autism which I had not even previously realised were traits of anxiety and autism prior to reading this book. As a result of reading and absorbing this information, as well as putting in place some of the strategies I can already see how the advice provided is having a positive impact. I can think of no better recommendation for reading this book than that. Written in an accessible, practical style, I am so glad I read this book and thank you Netgalley for the advance review copy.

This book is a super helpful easy to understand hide for parents who have a child newly diagnosed with autism who are trying to navigate life and parenthood. I loved that there were general guidelines but also specific situations and examples. I will definitely keep this as a great reference material.

If you're new to the topic of anxiety, especially anxiety in autistic children, this book is very helpful.
It illustrates examples of how to deal with specific situations based on case examples. It starts by explaining what anxiety is and covers a range of topics from school withdrawal - both regarding the child and their needs, and also how to communicate those needs to teachers and other educators - over fussy eating and how/where to seek help and what therapies might be effective.
If you're already familiar with the topic on hand, this book will offer little new information, yet it is a concise guidebook and as such possibly very helpful for not only parents, but family and friends alike.

I received an advance readers copy in exchange for an honest review.

Very basic but thorough introduction into helping children with autism to manage their anxiety. What I found particularly helpful was the chapter on supportive versus on supportive parent behaviors, because well we cannot control our special children, we can learn to control ourselves. Would definitely recommend for anyone starting out to explore this topic
