Reader reviews for Jay and Ben

From the publisher

Jay and Ben is an interactive book developed for use with children with developmental and learning differences and disabilities. The book is designed to help educators, parents, and caregivers teach children language, reading, and story comprehension.

Jay and Ben is an interactive book developed for use with children with developmental and learning differences and disabilities, including-but not limited to-autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention deficit disorder (ADD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), dyslexia, and language delays. The book is designed to help educators, parents, and caregivers teach children about language, reading, story comprehension, functional skills, and basic concepts.

Jay can make his own breakfast, dress himself, and play by himself, but sometimes he feels sad and wishes for a friend. When a magical horse appears and befriends Jay, his wish comes true. Clear visual representation of the text, through sequential illustrations along with picture symbols (based on the commonly-used Boardmaker & Picture Communication Symbols), enables children to gain understanding of the story plot and to recognize printed words.

Children with learning differences and disabilities exhibit a broad range of behaviors and abilities, and they require individualized instruction. Jay and Ben may be used in a variety of ways to promote each child's educational progress and growth.
