Answer 1

try

the different shades of autism

Or contact your state's Autism Resource Center (or named something similar) they will have a lending library.

Answer 2

Look at this web site.  It has small videos of autistic kids and a lot of useful information.  Click on the Interactice Autism Network link.   http://www.autismspeaks.org/

I don't know your situation, but most of the things we worry will happen to our kids, never do.  Please don't be anxious.

Answer 3

I've been down this road.  I worried about my daughter and let everyone tell me she was fine.  That wasted about 6 months of time until others started noticing and it turned out she was autistic.

Studies show the sooner you diagnosed the better for the child and the family.  Do not panic but if you are concerned you should call your pediatrician.  Diagnosis of Autism Spectrum and related disorders in young children is very complicated and needs to be done only by trained specialists.  Generally the first step is to see a neurologist.
