Book Description

My Baby Can Dance is for anyone who needs a reminder about what makes social interaction so wonderful and why sometimes, the simplest forms of communication can lead to the most wonderful encounters.For parents of children affected by autism, it is hard to identify exactly when their child slipped away. For one mother it was after planting flowers, for another it was one night in his sleep, for many more it was already too late to say goodbye. The stories in this book are of families that are all very different, and yet, their struggles are strikingly similar. They have made mistakes, they have cried and laughed and prayed. And, in the end they have done it all for the love of a child. Along with the remarkable stories of RDI? families is a message of hope that in their own time and in their own way these children will find their way back home. Eleven stories of families that live autism day by day using the Relationship Development Intervention? Program. Introduction by Dr. Steven E. Gutstein.
