John Ling has used knowledge, skills and experience gained from good practice to create a quality resource' - Special Social Stories were originally developed to help children on the autistic spectrum understand the social confusion that they faced in coming to terms with their worlds.
Since then, practitioners have developed the ideas for a much wider audience.John provides over 80 stories he has used with great success as a teacher in Kirklees for all sorts of children, including those with language delays, communication difficulties, difficult behaviour, antisocial behaviour as well as those with autism. Examples are provided, but the intention is that the adult and child work together to write a personal story that the child owns. The stories are practical and achievable, the language is down to earth and believable, and the subjects include those that we are often embarrassed to deal with.
If you want to develop the use of story to assist young people who are experiencing difficulties then this book provide you with content and structure to support the project.
