Autism is currently on the rise. It is estimated that one in every 10,000 children born in North America will fall into the autism (PDD) spectrum scale. Yet there is little known about this mysterious condition. Even less is known about multiple complex developmental disorder (MCDD). Though MCDD was once grouped into the PDD spectrum, researchers are now saying that this disorder should be classified separately—due to the fact that the symptoms of MCDD are closer to those of a mental illness. Written by a mother whose child suffers from both PDD and MCDD, this book is full of personal stories, wisdom and priceless information: Behavior plans that you can try at home. Advice on how to deal with the school system. Included are paragraphs written by Jordan, a child with PDD/MCDD. Jordan provides insight into the mind of a child suffering with this condition.Clemons, Brenda is the author of 'Jordan', published 2007 under ISBN 9781424183289 and ISBN 1424183286.
