Instructions Not Included transforms everyday struggles into extraordinary lessons about empathy, resilience, and respect for people.
Author Stephanie M. Hill repeatedly demonstrates how she strives to adjust her own lens rather than work to change her son. She combines her thoughtful leadership and scientific qualities-curiosity, experimentation, reflection, and heart-to bring the reader practical insights that extend beyond parenting and autism.
Stephanie wrote this book with the reader in mind. Busy caregivers need a quick read that entertains, delivers value, and offers flexibility to meet a short and unpredictable reading window. She achieves this through humor, summary lessons at the end of each chapter, and bite-sized sections that enable readers to pick up the book and set it down as needed without missing key reflection opportunities. Although they won't want to put it down!
