Nancy Mucklow is a writer, editor, teacher and parent who brings her practical, real-world experience with autism spectrum disorders to the grandparent generation. Her ability to translate complex situations into clear explanations and everyday strategies contributed to the success of her three other books on autism spectrum topics: The Sensory Team Handbook, Comic Sense and More Comic Sense.
"Being a grandparent myself, I know that our expectation is often
that the grandparent's role will be one that is a little bit
parent, a little bit teacher and a little bit best friend. We
figure that we can relax, enjoy and have fun, leaving the heavy
lifting for the parents..." -- Donna Owens "Amazon"
"The scenarios at the beginning of each chapter strike right to the
heart of REAL situations. Families need facts and real situations,
rather than theory. They will receive an abundance of those real
situations and facts in this book. Grandparent's Guide... has been
needed in our community for many, many years..." -- Susan J. Moreno
"Amazon"
"With no-nonsense information delivered in clear, readable prose,
Grandparent's Guide to Autism Spectrum Disorders is indispensable
for grandparents of the newly diagnosed. Can meltdowns be avoided?
How do I talk to my friends about my grandchild with ASD? These
topics and many more are addressed in a way that'll make
grandparents more competent." -- Susan Adcox "Amazon"
"There have been other wonderful essays and stories, but this is a
'how-to' that addresses all the different grandparenting styles and
family dynamics. Indeed, Nancy Mucklow includes aspects of
grandparenting that never even occurred to me before reading this
book. This is a must-read for grandparents, their children, all
teachers and counselors. -- Susan J. Moreno "CEO and Founder,
OASIS@MAAP Services for Autism and Asperger Syndrome"
