This book encourages mothers of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other special needs to never give up hope and faith as they continue to endure the life-changing experiences associated with raising a child with special needs. Whether it be through difficulties experienced at school or home, there are always lessons to be learned within every situation. It is the hope that as we grow through these lessons, we will become the firm foundations our children need to succeed in their lives. In Autism in April: A Mother’s Journey During the Tween Years, Dr. April J. Lisbon has captured the essence of what it means to be an ASD tween mother in an effort to help readers understand that there is purpose in every struggle we go through raising a child with ASD. As we embrace this journey for its highs and lows, we become better support systems for our children and other mothers raising children with ASD.
