Autism Heroes: Portraits of Families Meeting the Challenge
“One smile erases a hundred tantrums.” A quote said by one of the parents taken from Dr. Barbara Firestone’s new book. Barbara Firestone, PhD., founder and CEO of the Help Group, recently published a wonderful book, titled “Autism Heroes: Portraits of Families Meeting the Challenge.”
Autism Heroes is a touchingly honest book bringing awareness and a new perspective on how autism is touching a plethora of families from all walks of life. This 240 page book, filled with beautiful black and white photography, takes a profound look at thirty-eight families and how autism has impacted their lives. These personal narratives explore the victories and challenges these families face; it gives inspiration and hope to the readers, especially parent’s who have children newly diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. In addition to these narratives, insightful essays written by Dr. Firestone about dignity, hope, opportunity and love are dispersed throughout the book.
Whether you are a person who has been touched by autism or an individual who wants to learn more about this prevalent disorder, Autism Heroes is a book to read.
