Who has time to read the newspaper, let alone a book about special needs. But if you do, The Child with Special Needs is a must read.

For children who have trouble expressing their needs or understanding what you say, More Than Words is a top choice. Children who need an intensive language program should look into the ABLLS (Assessment of Basic Language and Learning Skills).
