Description

In this moving narrative of resilience and pure love, three mothers share their experiences and learnings about life alongside autism.

With over a million followers, 'Finding Cooper's Voice' creator and bestselling author Kate Swenson, along with autism advocates Adrian Wood and Carrie Cariello, share their wisdom and experience about raising children with autism in this must-have resource for parents of children with disabilities.

Kate Swenson, Adrian Wood and Carrie Cariello are from different parts of the USA, and backgrounds, but they were brought together by a singular experience: they are each a mother to a child with autism. Together they have shared laughter, tears, victories and the unconditional love that molds their lives.

Kate, Adrian and Carrie have children with very different autism profiles, and in Autism Out Loud they write about their unique experiences on a variety of topics, from diagnosis to caregiving, schooling and aging. Through their varied stories and lessons they've learned, these incredible women provide a glimpse of what to expect on the autism journey and show parents that they are not alone.

Written with honesty and heart, the stories within these pages serve as a reminder that even amid the storms of life, there is always hope and beauty to be found. A tribute to the unparalleled love of mothers, this inspiring book illuminates the joys, challenges and everyday miracles of life on the spectrum.
