The book comes about from the experience of Educational programmes aimed at autonomy by the Italian Association for People with Down Syndrome. It offers an educational programme on emotions, relationships and sexuality and is specifically aimed at adolescents with intellectual disabilities, but it can also be used by all adolescents who are experimenting with their bodies the changes that growing up entails, and who are experiencing their first friendship and love relationships.
This book of activities is designed to be used directly by the adolescent; it is rich in colour pictures and offers stimulating, fun exercises and games which, by using a playful approach, allow adolescents to:
– get to know themselves
– get to know others
– get to know their own emotions
– get to know their own bodies.

The series comes from the experiences of “Programmes for teaching autonomy” led by the AIPD (Italian Association for people with Down Syndrome). Each book offers materials, activities and exercises for teaching the basics of autonomy to children and adolescents with intellectual disabilities. All the books, which are written using easy-to-understand language and are colour illustrated, come with a handy guide for educators and parents. As Anna Contardi affirms «We have been working at improving people's autonomy for 25 years. We have achieved excellent results. For example, we have managed to teach youngsters with serious intellectual disabilities, who are unable to read or write, to take public transport, handle money, take care of their personal hygiene, do housework and cook».
