Transitions can be a stressful situation for children with special needs such as autism. With Stories About Me a student can be provided specific details on what they can expect from a situation and what should be expected of them. This app will allow them to hear their own or their teacher’s recorded voice and see recognizable images on the story pages, rather than predeveloped scenes involving strangers.
This process is designed to improve generalization and rate of skill development. Nonreaders can also benefit with from the voice recordings.

"Great! This app is going to be a great tool in my special ed class."
"Simple and Amazing App! It can't get any simpler than this. You are given an empty template and allowed to do whatever you can think of. This will become a 'staple' app in the collection of anyone who has kids, especially special needs ones. I absolutely love the simplicity. Perfect. I can create social stories for my son, make a talking photo album that he can revisit time and time again, and even create books out of his most favorite stories. Also great is that you can share stories. Highly recommend!"

This idea behind this app is perfect for special needs kids to create personalized social stories starring them and others in their life. However, this app has many issues with my iPad2. I am unable to edit the title page picture or text after creation of the book, I am unable to delete pages (despite the picture in the App Store), and the text boxes allow you to type more than can be displayed on the title or pages. I have painfully managed to get around these issues because the app costs so much, but it could benefit from a much needed update.
