The 20th Anniversary Edition of Ellen Notbohm’s Ten Things Your Student with Autism Wishes You Knew commemorates the companion book to the beloved classic Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew. The compelling perspective of an autistic child’s voice describes for teachers, in the classroom and in the larger community, how to understand thinking and processing patterns common in autism, how to shape an environment conducive to their learning style, and how to communicate with autistic learners of all ages in functional, meaningful ways. It's the guidebook every educator and family member, worldwide, needs to create effective and inclusive settings where child and adult are both teachers and learners.

And, in a new section exclusive to the 20th Anniversary Edition, Ellen gives us The 11th Thing, her wise and thought-provoking response to one of Ten Things readers’ most frequent requests.

Continuously in print since 2006, and translated into multiple languages, Ten Things Your Student with Autism Wishes You Knew brings empowering and relatable fresh perspective to a new generation of educators and autistic learners.
