10 Things Every Child With Autism Wishes You Knew-Every Adult Needs to Read This

TEN THINGS EVERY CHILD With AUTISM WISHES YOU KNEW is an eye opening and heart melting book that is cogent, compelling and powerful.  Author, Ellen Nothbohm is a parent of 2 sons with autism and an award winning writer.  Nothbohm shares her personal experiences, trials & triumphs.  Even more enlightening are her insights into how children with autism are experiencing & interacting with their surroundings.  Startling statistics reveal that 1 in 68 children born today will be somewhere on the autistic spectrum.  This is up 30% from just 2 years prior.  It is highly likely that you, a family member or someone you know has a child with autism.  The compassionate understanding & perspective that Nothbohm shares is both thoughtful and extremely helpful. It is never preachy but it is a wise lesson in empathy.  TEN THINGS EVERY CHILD…is tremendously beneficial for everyone who interacts with children (which should be everyone.)   I recommend this fascinating find which reminds us "Like all kids, they need time to just be kids."
