"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."

---Ralph Waldo Emerson
 

Ellen Notbohm's child-centered approach to autism is already having immeasurable effects on the autism community through her books Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew, 1001 Great Ideas for Teaching and Raising Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders, and Ten Things Your Student with Autism Wishes You Knew. 

Ellen offers concrete advice on issues such as math homework, video games, and tricky behavior, and also tackles the more abstract concepts of parenting, such as trusting parental instincts, when to take risks, how to hang on, and when to let go. This book is absolutely invaluable to all who are "on the autism trail."
