Why Me?: A Parent's Journey with a Preschool with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

This is a must-read book for parents and family members of preschool children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), early childhood practitioners and others working with or caring for preschool children with ASD.

The book is presented predominantly as a conversation between the author, Dr Shan Narayanan, and Puan Mohanita Azlina, the mother of a pre-school child with ASD. In the course of her many conversations with Dr Shan, Puan Mohanita got to understand her son’s condition, and learned how to support him.

This helped her to firstly, accept her son as he is and cope better with his condition, and secondly, chart a plan to maximise his capabilities.

Written in a simple conversational style, this book is an invaluable supplementary support for parents, families and anyone involved in the education and care of pre-school children with ASD.
