Very disappointed when this book arrived.  This is geared for older children and should state that.  Certainly not aimed for 3 to 4 years old.

I was very disappointed with this book. As a former preschool teacher, none of the projects in the book were new to me. I was hoping for some special projects to do w/ my autistic son, but we have already done them all.

The ideas in this book are great for the autistic child, but as a teacher I can see using these ideas with all students! This is a wonderful resource.

As an Elementary Art Teacher, I can say to any professional that is on a budget, save your money.  This book feels like &quot;jotted&quot; notes in a notebook.  Lacks visuals and description.  Contains everything you probably already use.  Unprofessionally written, unscholarly, lacks resourceful background information and is overall a complete disservice to teachers.

As a mother of an child with autism, I found Reaching the Child with Autism through Art to be indespensible.  The activities are fun and simple and don&#039;t take expensive supplies.  I feel that these type activities were helpful with my son&#039;s sensory integration skills, especially tactile awareness.  All the activities are tried and true since the author began teaching in 1968 and had extensive experience from which to draw.  I would think that any classroom teacher of children on the autism spectrum would find this book useful but as a homeschooling mom it got us through many days.

		<description>for each terrorist we turn he can turn dozens of others, thereby saving american lives
art therapy allows him to express his individual emotions instead of just following by rout what he is told is the koranic line, it is a very important step

Fox is very anti art therapy as it is afraid it may lose it robotic control over the republican masses if they express themselves</description>
