(Nelle Frances Dec. 4, 2012)
Ben, His Helmet and Hats Off (5-9 yrs) is about Ben attending Assembly/Parade and the sensory minefield this can be for children with Asperger’s Syndrome. Once again his helmet comes to the rescue. “… he found he heard a lot more at this Assembly than he ever had before … it was the best Assembly ever!”
The Ben and His Helmet series are an awesome resource for your child on the Autism Spectrum! They're also a must have resource for classroom teachers wanting to support children with Asperger's Syndrome.
These books are social stories, set in a mainstream classroom, reinforcing desired classroom practice and social behaviours, while encouraging the AS child to self-manage their behaviour.
The series offers problem-solving strategies easily implemented by the child on the Autism Spectrum.
