Hi everyone! Today, I want to share with you a different project I'm working on that has nothing to do with poetry. I am writing a picture book about small children and autism. For reasons I will explain later, this topic is extremely sensitive for me. What can you expect from the book? The story will be told from a child's point of view who has Autism Spectrum Disorder explaining to others why they are they way they are in a fun, silly, and positive way. The purpose of the book is for children who have ASD to realize they are beautiful the way they are and for others to understand that as well. A friend from school is illustrating for me. We are both excited about working on this project together, and I feel this will help many families to connect with their children and loved ones in their lives. That's all for now. The next sneek peak will be once the book is finished.
All my love,
Brittany Benko
