Jongvolwassenen met een autismespectrumstoornis (ASS) staan voor een grote uitdaging. Ze worden voor keuzes gesteld, komen vaak in een nieuwe omgeving terecht en er wordt een grotere mate van zelfstandigheid verwacht. Individuele begeleiding helpt hen om zich hierop voor te bereiden. Een eerste stap daarbij is nagaan aan welke vaardigheden gewerkt kan worden. Daarom werd de ADAPTI ontwikkeld, een zelfrapporteringsinstrument dat de adaptieve vaardigheden van jongvolwassenen met ASS in kaart brengt. De uitkomst is een uniek profiel op vlak van sociale interacties, inlevingsvermogen, communicatie, flexibiliteit, planning en organisatie, computervaardigheden, omgaan met interesses en zelfredzaamheid. Het profiel biedt aanknopingspunten voor een gerichte begeleiding. De vragenlijst is ontwikkeld voor schoolgaande of studerende jongvolwassenen met ASS van 16 tot en met 25 jaar, met (boven)gemiddelde cognitieve mogelijkheden. Het invullen neemt slechts 15 minuten in beslag.

"Caroline knows best." Caroline's mother ran away from her father when Caroline was four years old, and her father and stepmother died fifteen years later, leaving her with a young step-brother and two young step-sisters to bring up. Orphaned, and in the care of their eldest sister, the three children grow up in a world where one thing is true: "Caroline knows best." The children adore her, but as they grow up and spread their wings, tension creeps into formerly happy relationships as Caroline cannot bear to relinquish her hold on them. Having sacrificed her own life for the children, to whom she is practically a mother, Caroline values loyalty above all else; but when she invites a guest into her home, she is not prepared for the resulting shift in allegiances in her long-established realm. First published in 1936, Caroline offers a nuanced study of family relationships, of women trapped by duty and respectability, and how good intentions can sometimes have unwanted consequences. One of Richmal Crompton's 'lost' adult novels, Bello is proud to bring eleven of these titles back into print for the first time since original publication.

Thirty-something Parisian artist Billie is working towards her next exhibition when she receives the news that her mother, with whom she has had no contact for years, has drowned in the river near her nursing home. In an attempt to understand the circumstances of her death, she returns to V, the village where she grew up in the parched, sun-drenched hills above the Mediterranean. When she arrives there, Billie finds herself reliving memories of another river drowning, 20 years earlier, memories she had tried to obliterate. What happened to Billie's dear friend Lila back then, at the age of 16, and why is Billie stalked by guilt? Sunlight Hours paints a picture of three generations of women, united by the secrets of a river.

Caroline

The year was 1960. The place, Paris. They met by chance on the street in front of the small hotel where they both had taken lodging-the author, an American newspaperman; and a pretty girl with light brown hair cropped short, unruly. Her voice was low pitched, her accent unmistakably English but modulated, restrained, an echo of class, though not of the working class. In profile the sharp line of her jaw tipped upward and her forehead, high and straight, offered a classical image of startling beauty and febrile intensity. Her name was Caroline. For whatever reasons, or for no particular reason at all unless escape from unpleasantness and tedium was a reason, she and the author had drifted into this ancient city. Paris then was magic. Paris was that almost mythical idyll of youth and freedom, and Paris had seduced and bewitched them. Thus begins Alan Littell's memoir of the early years of the girl he one day would marry, from her birth as a British colonial in Cairo in 1939 to their life together in the Europe, England and America of the 1960s.

Thomas Holcroft s 1786 translation of Isabelle de Montolieu s novel is a textual encounter between a rather conventional Swiss woman and a British radical. Just as Montolieu did in her own translations, Holcroft reworked parts of the novel to make it more appealing to his intended audience."
