This edition contains a 12-week curriculum designed to integrate a multisensory approach to developing the critical and fundamental aspects of Theory of Mind (ToM). The activities are intended for children aged 5-9, who have been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or who face related social challenges.

Additionally, the book is based on the principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, showing how teaching ToM to young children can help them better understand the emotions and actions of others. The program is designed to enhance the development of ToM and skills such as imitation, joint attention, and role-play. These foundations aid in the social development of children with ASD, making it easier for them to navigate relationships and social situations.

Aside from practical advice and supplementary materials such as worksheets and photocopyable cards, the book includes reinforcing activities that can be implemented at home with parents and caregivers. The book is authored by Dr. Kirstina Ordetx, an experienced Developmental Psychologist and expert in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and is essential reading for teachers and other professionals working with children with ASD and related social difficulties.
