You Are a Social Detective! Explaining Social Thinking to Kids, 2nd Edition (Storybook)

The social world is a big, complicated place where we are all social detectives as we observe, gather, and make sense of the clues in different social situations (settings, the people in them, what’s happening) to figure out the hidden rules for expected behaviors, as well as to understand how we each feel and think about what others say and do in a situation. This multiple award-winning 2nd edition storybook teaches social learners the power of observation, reading context, and interpreting clues to then eventually choose how to respond in ways that meet their social goals. Buy the book as part of the bundle, or separately for full price. Digital version must be purchased separately—only on Apple Books and Google Play (not printable).
