Rules & Tools for Parents is most certainly the best behavior resource for parents of children with ASD available! Through a simple and structured approach to behavior planning, this book guides parents to understand why behaviors occur, to identify patterns of behaviors, and to use appropriate, evidence-based strategies. Whether you are a family member, an educator, or a health professional working with families, you will want to keep this resource close at hand! --Laura L. Maddox, PhD, BCBA, program director, Online Learning, Ohio Center for Autism and Low Incidence Disabilities

Rules and Tools is an indispensable resource for families with children of all ages on the autism spectrum. It provides accessible, yet detailed strategies for understanding why people on the spectrum behave the way they do, as well as how to help them overcome the struggles they face living with a neurotypical world. It is a crucial resource to help families address pressing concerns, prepare for the future, and see the bigger picture. This is not just a collection of rules and tools but a comprehensive and systematic way to effectively and lovingly parent a child with autism.--Daniella Simon, LLMSW, MPH, BCBA, program consultant, Novel Responses, Inc.

The strongest part of the book and the thing I liked best was all the tools. I think they will be very helpful to many people in lots of different circumstances and I will likely use them myself in my work. Finally, the layout of the book is superb, easing the flow of reading.--Judy Endow, MSW, author, artist, speaker, consultant
