"An Autism Connection" is a book by a parent of a beautiful 11 year old boy with autism and is about sharing experiences, understanding, thoughts, feelings, tribulations, difficulties, hopes and dreams of parenting a child on the autism spectrum.
Being able to relate to the similarities and differences in each others journeys, we can avail ourselves of an experience which can be cathartic, invaluable, empowering and reassuring.
The author, Louise Page from Melbourne, Australia, is a Professional Counsellor (parents and carers of children on the spectrum), Illustrator, Integration Aide, Autism Therapist, childrens' story writer and, above all and especially, is a devoted and proud mum, relative, colleague and friend to many souls on the spectrum.
Louise believes that this easy-to-read book is one which many parents who have children on the spectrum, or those whose child has recently been diagnosed with autism, will be able to relate to.

"Autism connection"
I have only read the review but looking forward to reading the rest of this book, as Louise is an inspirational parent, who really does embrace her child and his differences.
She not only wants to learn from her own child, but from as she feels the best resources, people on the autism spectrum themselves. She is passionate about respecting others for their uniqueness and individuality and that not one human being is superior to another.

"An autism connection"
I am the parent also of a person with Autism...and also several other parties living in his body. I believe books written in the parents view will give hope and laughter to new parents. To let them know they are not alone. The general public will be able to understand better by hearing a parents view rather than that of a medical professional. Much luck to you and your book.

Thankyou Alyson for those very kind words.
Such positive responses from a person on the spectrum themselves means so much to me :)
