Why read it?
1 author picked Uniquely Human as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Many readers gave us appreciative feedback for including a chapter on kids who are differently wired in our first book. If you are one of those readers, you’ll love Barry Prizant's book.
When I read it I thought, “Yes, yes, YES!” Finally, a book about kids on the spectrum that treats them as fully human instead of problems to be solved with behavior charts, rewards, and punishments. Prizant will help you meet your child’s needs along with your own, while respecting and celebrating their individuality.
From Joanna and Julie's list on to create strong connections in their families.
