Autism Every Day: Over 150 Strategies Lived and Learned by a Professional Autism Consultant with 3 Sons on the Spectrum Paperback – November 15, 2011

This is a great book with valuable information from a mom who has been there. She give valuable tips and great advise. I recommend this book for anyone who has just found out that their child has Autism. Very good.

Disclaimer: I have met the Beytien family, and have been fortunate to see them in action and to have heard some of the experiences related in this book prior to purchasing it for myself. Even so, this family's experiences move me to laughter and tears.I continue to be impressed with Alyson's breadth of knowledge and her continuing search to learn all she can to help her sons lead joyful lives. She is very generous to share her personal experiences as a way to help other parents. Even as a parent of "typical" children, I find that I can apply most of what Alyson shares to my own life. She deals with the issues many people hesitate to address, and that some are afraid to ask about.Alyson's writing style is fresh and direct. Her message is straightforward and easy to follow. I especially like the brief summary of points at the end of each chapter. Too often, when reading something informational about something I am stressed or worried about, I can lose track of what I am meant to be learning. Alyson's format prevents that from happening.Whether you are the parent, grandparent, neighbor, or educator of a child with autism, this book will give you insight into how you can help.

This book will have you laughing and crying with these real life stories! A great book for any parent to read who has high functioning autistic children.

Well written, informative, and funny.

We recently found out my nephew is on the spectrum and his mother has been pleased with this book and feels connected to the stories.Thank you for making her feel seen.

I have a 3 year old son with autism and this has been one of the best books I've read about autism life so far. I don't know how Ms. Beytien does it, but she's a terrific writer in addition to being a great mom. It is so helpful to read a book written by someone who actually lives with autistic children and isn't just someone with a degree, but no real life experience. I laughed. I cried. I gave the book to my mother, who did the same thing. The tips are helpful and practical. The stories are hilarious. I would give this book 10 stars if it were possible.

I found the information in this book to be direct and basic. Probably good for someone who is just beginning their journey. I listened to the audio book and DEAR GOD the readers voice almost sent me over the edge. It’s very nasal and valley girl like and she uses voice inflections at all the wrong times. Perhaps it would have been a more pleasant experience if this had not been the case.

I bought this book after listening to Alyson speak. I bought two more after that. My whole family has read and loved this book! I have two children with autism and I am always looking for ideas to help them. I was inspired by her spunk, her practical advice, and her obvious love for her "guys". This book is such an easy read! Alyson is so honest an so real and her strategies at the end of each chapter are fantastic! This book will make you laugh, cry, and will give you hope for the future for your loved one with autism.
