Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism I ordered this book with high hopes, after visiting Melinda's website. However, the book was a disappointment. It contained VERY little information about the development of playskills in typical children, stages of play, and what skills should be taught first. Instead, the book was more of a personal narrative; a collection of the author's personal experiences in teaching her own son how to play, and excerpts of notes written by her child's therapists. The information was too specific to her high-functioning child to be of use to many parents and professionals who work with children at different levels. Much of the book was comprised of the same lists available on her website. Save yourself the money, and buy another, more useful book.
