The Verbal Behavior Approach How to Teach Children with Autism and Related Disorders Audible Audio Edition Mary Lynch Barbera Tracy Rasmussen Jen Gosnell John Murray Books Reviews


  • This is a wonderful, detailed, and easy to navigate and implement overview of verbal behavior for parents, caregivers, teachers, SLPs, and new ABA practitioners seeking an introduction to ABA VB. I am a parent of a child with autism and a BCBA and appreciated the synthesis of behavioral science with practical application and every day terminology and concepts that would empower and appeal to someone not well versed in ABA, but seeking an evidence based approach to help their child. It is also compelling as the author shares personal anecdotes of her own journey using ABA VB with her son. I recommend this book highly.
  • Thank you for this book. In this new world of autism my family has entered, with so many unfamiliar terms and suggestions, this book has really helped me to make some sense of what our son needs and the therapy he is receiving. Im better able now to make relevant steps in administering his home therapy and helping him throughout the day.
  • I am a BCBA who works in schools. I read this book for the first time this past spring and was so thrilled with the high-quality information presented in such an accessible way that I had my school district purchase a copy for all of our special education staff (teachers, paras, SLPs, and even some parents) so that we may all read it and collaborate about implementation together. It's such an empowering book because it is real, relatable, and gives people (even those with little to no background knowledge of ABA) some solid steps to take in working with children with autism.

    Thank you for this book and for your work, Mary Barbera! FIVE STARS!
  • I practice ABA but found it very helpful with encouraging communication such as manding and tacting as well as more naturalistic ways of teaching! Also helpful for parents to read as well!
  • It is a fantastic book and we are using it to introduce our new behavioral technicians and registered behavior technicians to the way we do therapy at our center.
    We are giving a copy to the parents of our little clients because it is written in such a way that a parent can understand how to use these techniques at home.
  • This book is amazing! I'm a special education teacher and the explanations, examples, and strategies described in this book are easy to follow if you're a beginning special ed teacher, support service or parent with a child with disabilities. This book does focus on Autism, based on my experience and according to the author, can be applied to other developmental delays and intellectual disabilities.
  • Excellent book. It's very easy to read, the author uses terminology, but explains and breaks it down very well. I have read a lot of books regarding this topic and felt like this book is one I will refer to if needed. Other books, I have had a hard time understanding terminology I am unfamiliar with. This book is great for using terminology and being able to apply the knowledge. I would highly recommend this book to those looking for a way to apply ABA.
  • I'm currently a grad student studying Applied Behavior Analysis, and I bought the book for a class I was taking, as a required text. But I have found it very useful outside of the classroom as well. The book is written from a parent's perspective, so it describes behavior analysis from that perspective, and uses a lot of lay terms to help the reader understand the concepts. I have even recommended it to parents of children trying to get help with their children that they believe may have autism.
