Autism, Identity and Me: A Practical Workbook to Empower Autistic Children and Young People Aged 10+: Autism, Identity and Me
Autor Rebecca Duffusen Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 feb 2023
Highly structured and visual, the workbook is broken down into key sections such as 'Interests and focus', 'Masking', 'Emotions and energy levels' and 'My autistic identity statement' to create a personal passport and to develop a deeper understanding of what autism means to the young person as an individual. Content has been shaped by autistic advisors and contributors, with first-hand experiences of young people woven throughout. The workbook aims to encourage and build:
- An understanding of what autism is
- An understanding of what autism means to them (their autistic identity)
- A positive sense of self
- An acknowledgement of things that may be trickier
- A pride in being autistic.
For effective use, this workbook should be purchased alongside the guide. Both books can purchased together as a set, Autism, Identity and Me: A Practical Workbook and Professional Guide to Empower Autistic Children and Young People Aged 10+, 9781032261027.

Recenzii
"Rebecca’s book is innovative as it helps autistic young people own their autism diagnosis. Using non-medical jargon and empowering, yet factual, information, Rebecca has created a non-judgemental and non-infantilised place to not only support but explore what comes next." – Carly Jones MBE, British Autism Advocate
"This book has helped me get a grip on my autism and understand it more. It allows me to see the reasons, know why I’m doing all this stuff that neurotypicals wouldn’t do, and makes me feel better – good – that I wasn't alone in this." – Daniel, Young Person
"Rebecca’s book is a great resource for guiding strength-based conversations about a young person’s autistic identity. The book focuses on individual similarities and differences, whilst encouraging a sense of shared identity and connection to others. This is a great resource for supporting young people to explore their individual strengths and skills, whilst developing a sense of pride. A recommended read!" – Dr Claire Prosser BEM, Educational Psychologist, Spectropolis – Pay it Forward
"Hearing voices of autistic children throughout the book gives a unique insight that can only be gained from listening to those with lived experience. Rebecca's passion for supporting autistic young people is clear throughout, which has resulted in a book which allows autistic young people a chance to positively own their identity." – Dr Jenna Kenyani, Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Wellbeing Adviser, University of Liverpool
"It’s a positive book, the illustrations being done by someone who is autistic is brilliant, and I like the autistic people section near the end." – Lynn McCann, Autism & PDA Specialist Teacher & Author, Reachout ASC
