Читать книгу Me and My PDA - Tamar Levi - Страница 7

Two people wrote this book together. We will introduce ourselves now:

Hello, I’m Dr Glòria!

99.9 per cent of my patients call me Dr Glòria, which is easier to remember than my surname.

I studied medicine and child and adolescent psychiatry, and I specialise in Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Let me tell you how the book came to be: over the years, many children and young people who were told they had PDA have asked me to help them understand what having PDA was all about, and even more importantly, what PDA meant specifically for them.

Many parents and teachers have also asked how best to help

children and pupils to understand their difficulties. I thought it

would be easier if I made a book that you could take home, to

look at any time you wanted. Also, parents and

people who help you can read it to understand

and support you better.

As I did with my earlier child’s guide

to Autism Spectrum Disorder, My Autism

Book, I asked Tamar to help me with

the book. She didn’t need much

convincing this time either as

she loved the idea straightaway.

I will let Tamar introduce

herself now.
