"I have loved and used Carol Gray's ideas for years with my
son. They helped open the door to communicating with my son about
complex, abstract social lessons. I love her term 'social understanding'.
I often think it is not the skill my son lacks but the understanding.
Thanks Carol!"

"We have used social stories in our mainstream primary school
quite a bit over the past year. We have used digital photos of the
children and the staff members in the stories - this has been especially
effective for transitions to new classes for children with autistic
spectrum difficulties, and also for children just lacking self-confidence.
I have also used some of the comic strip conversation ideas for
helping a child to understand what has led up to an incident where
he has become upset, for making his own visual reminder cards, and
for him to record social learning successes. Carol Gray's books
are great!"
