"Colorful and easy to implement, this book will be a resource for parents and guardians looking to try behavior contracting in their homes." --Library Journal

When a child is struggling with a behavior challenge or wants to learn a new skill, a contract can be a surprisingly effective solution that leads to more peaceful family dynamics. To help families create contracts as a collaborative process, Let's Make a Contract offers an innovative combination of how-to text for parents and illustrated stories for children.

Let's Make a Contract describes a straightforward, four-step solution called behavioral contracting, a research-based technique with proven real-world success. Contracts are a tool that can benefit anyone, but they're particularly useful for:
  • Autistic children
  • Children with learning or developmental disabilities
  • Children who benefit from clear expectations and receiving positive feedback and rewards

The book's beautifully illustrated stories show a diverse group of families using contracts to address common problems such as:
  • Completing chores or homework
  • Getting along with siblings
  • Becoming independent
  • Achieving personal goals

Questions after each story are designed to spark age-appropriate discussions.

Sample contracting forms and supporting materials are provided in the book and also on a companion website.
