"Autism is no laughing matter, but this book captures the small humorous loved-filled moments, of a mother's personal reflections about raising a son with autism.
(BENDIGO, AUSTRALIA) - Author Kelly Andrews today announced the release of 100 Kisses of Autism (ISBN # 9781742841069), a collection of 100 anecdotes based upon the authors journey as a parent of an autistic son, and living with the effects of this complex neurodevelopment disorder.
From the early challenges and hardships, to finding the "100 Kisses of Autism", Kelly's book aims to open the eyes and hearts to the world of the autistic mind seen through the vision of loved-filled humour, each kiss in the book is a beautiful or entertaining moment in passing:
From the books first kiss: "You realise you're raising a wonderfully selfconfident child when Sam says to his Dad, "I'm better than you, Dad. I'm stronger and smarter and I have more autism!""
Experts estimate that autism affects 1 in every 110 children. More children will be diagnosed with autism this year than with Diabetes, AIDS & cancer combined. There is no medical cure for autism.
"100 Kisses of Autism -Raising Smiles, is heartfelt and humorous, all wrapped up in one little book, and was written in hope to inspire, raise understanding and encourage a view of positivity to embrace, in amongst the challenging, unpredictable and extraordinary journey attached to Autism," says Kelly Andrews.
Kelly Andrews is a mother of two children from Bendigo, Victoria. Her youngest child is formally diagnosed with High Functioning Autism. For over 12 years, Kelly worked in the Childcare Industry, including as a Director of the first purpose built private childcare centre in Bendigo.
At present Kelly's most current journey is dedicated to being a mother and publishing her story.100 Kisses of Autism is her first book."
