The critique feedback I received was incredibly helpful as it reaffirmed in my head what it is exactly I need to create and that I need to ensure the information I use is condensed because the ASD spectrum so is so widely varied. They agreed that the target audience for my publication being for parents would be perfect as it means that the cause and reasoning is related. It was also mentioned that I could perhaps show autism as a spectrum in the form of a concertina book but I explained that this wouldn't be suitable as each individual person with autism is entirely different- there isn't necessarily a scale as such in severity. It was also mentioned that I could use case studies too and use a compare/contrast approach but again I don't believe this would be helpful due to the fact each individual is entirely different. However helpful tips were that I could include information about treatment and what help is available for parents and children- this would allow for a friendly feel to the book and make the experience of diagnosis less intense. But moving forward now I need to ensure I collect my information which is relevant from my previous research I've come up with a few different sections: what is autism? why act early? and the early signs/ treatment.
