FASD Book Reviews (Summaries)

FASD Book Reviews Caregivers Should Know About

As a parent and psychologist specializing in Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), I know firsthand how hard it can be to find books that truly speak to our experiences as caregivers. These FASD book reviews are written for foster, adoptive, and biological parents, as well as for professionals who support them, who are looking for insight, validation, and real-world strategies.

Each FASD book review featured here is carefully chosen to help:

  • Understand FASD from both scientific and lived perspectives,

  • Learn brain-based strategies that actually work in daily life, and/or

  • Feel less alone and more confident in your caregiving journey.

I focus on books that are grounded in neuroscience, attachment, and trauma-responsive care, but also those that bring hope and understanding through lived experience.

Whether you’re raising a child, teen, or adult with FASD, or supporting families through your professional work, these reviews will help you find the resources that make a genuine difference.
