'This is a great resource for parents, teachers and other professionals supporting the transition of pupils on the autistic spectrum in their move from primary into secondary education... It is a resource that I would definitely recommend and one that can be dipped in and out of as necessary, should a child be having particular difficulty in understanding a specific aspect of this very significant phase in his/ her education.'

- British Journal School of Nursing

'Deserving of ongoing mention for parents, teachers and educators at all levels... An ongoing, top recommendation.'
