A guide to help children with autism develop the skills for simple conversation
Kate Wilde has spent the whole of her life working with children on the autism spectrum. She has worked for the Autism Treatment Center of America(R) for over 25 years, working one-on-one with over 1,500 children from more than 40 different countries. She is currently the Director of The Son-Rise Program(R). She lives in Suffolk, UK.
Reading this book is like having an in-home consultant - or better,
a knowledgeable friend - to cheer you on and guide you along.
Wilde uses real life examples and practical bullet points to
support and inspire you in helping your child of any ageto gain
more speech.
She reminds readers, "we are not in a rush," taking the pressure
off the results and instead putting the focus on the relationship
we are nurturing with our children while we teach them that
language is fun and useful. This is the only resource you'll need
to help your child grow in his communication!

Kate Wilde has done it again! In a clear and concise manner, her
new book The Autism Language Launcher lays out how speech can
become a very real possibility for any currently non-verbal child
or adult with autism. In her book, Kate offers not only buckets of
hope (backed up with so many wonderful examples) to support
families on this journey to spoken language, but also concrete
techniques that encourage success and help build increased
relationship with our children. I adore Kate, I adore this book and
I can't wait to hand it out to all my families who wish for more
verbal communication with their children. Mark my words, The Autism
Language Launcher is a game changer!
