When my 3-year-old son was diagnosed with autism, and I was looking for help, Kate Wilde was one of the amazing teachers I was blessed to encounter (there is some magic right there!). She changed our lives! Since that time she has put 19 more years of experience under her belt. One would be hard pressed to find anyone who knows more about loving and helping children/adults with autism to thrive than Kate.
With Autism Abracadabra, Kate has once again "magically" created a how to book that will change you, and your child's, life for the better. No hocus pocus here - the magic on these pages is real!"

Pure and powerful magic indeed! -- Dr Suzanne Goh, Executive Director of Embrace Autism Pte Ltd
