I thought my kid might like Clifford (apparently he doesn't) so I bought him some books. It's not his favorite but he's starting to find it funny (on the spectrum) so I'd say it's a win! It's about Clifford trying to help but messing things up instead. He's pretty depressed when he finally discovers what he's good at: putting out a fire! He receives a medal for saving the children on the top floor and using the nearby swimming pool to put out the fire while the fire department is called. I think it's not just about helping, it's also about knowing your own abilities and strengths and being willing to accept the fact that you're not going to be great at everything, even with the best of intentions. Those who. This is very good news for ALL children, but especially for those on the autism spectrum.
