Through photos and stories, bestselling author Karen Ingalls shares Carol's journey, then offers a wealth of resources, teaching methods, school choices, and financial-assistance options. With Karen's unique insight, Learning About Autism shows how one very determined mother and her family can rise above daunting challenges to thrive and find happiness.
