Autism Goes to School - School Daze, #1

A single dad. A dedicated teacher. An autistic child. Can they be what each other needs? Ben's frantic, sixty-hour workweek has no room for a family. His life turns upside down when he learns he must care for the autistic son he never knew he had. And while he knows caring for Kyle will be challenging, he didn't expect it to open his eyes to life's everyday wonders. Schoolteacher Melanie Nicols sees Ben as a deadbeat dad but grudgingly comes to admire how he hangs in, determined to learn for his son's sake.
Her admiration grows to more as father and son come to rely on Melanie being a part of their lives. As she convinces Ben to work with her to support Kyle's development, it could spark the beginning of a beautiful bond, one that would last a lifetime. From the creative mind of a psychologist, teacher, and specialist in autism disorders comes a memorable novel of life and love. When parents receive the news that their child has autism, they spend countless hours researching the subject, usually at night, after an exhausting day.
Teachers, when they hear that they'll have a student with an autism spectrum disorder, also try to learn as much as they can. This novel was written for such parents and teachers - an entertaining read that's fun, yet still offers strategies and information on autism.
