Dear Karen,
Thanks for being so open and honest while sharing such an emotional story. I
recently published a book that you might find very soothing and uplifting.
You can view this book at
http://www.amazon.com/Know-Me-Love-Celebration-Autistic/dp/1449542921/ref=sr
to see for yourself how fortunate you are to have your child be one of these
angels!
Peace and joy to you and your family!

Hello Karen:
I’m working with the author of a new non-fiction book on autism called Autism Conversations, which was written for both professionals that diagnose autism and parents of children on the autism spectrum. The book introduces a new way of connecting with children, building trust with parents, and planning for successful interventions through specific conversations.
We would like to offer any of the following that may helpful to your audience and members:
A review copy of the book.
An interview (by phone, email, or webcam) with author, Dr. Marilyn J. Monteiro
Our free downloadable PDF resources, including:
• A quick reference chart on the autism spectrum
• Practical tip sheets for discussing the diagnosis of autism
• Techniques for practitioners to build trust with parents
If you feel these resources would be of use to you and your readers, we’d be happy to make them available to you.
I look forward to speaking with you,
Shelly Hartman
