A moving ride along the journey of discovery,
This review is from: From Autism to All-Star (Paperback)
"From Autism... To All-Star" gave me a new perspective on autism -- the real-time, as-it-happens experience of a parent discovering that her child is autistic. Because Rhonda Brunett wrote this book as a journal to her son, Jordan, beginning before he was born, it is truly a first-hand account of her experience as she recognizes and accepts Jordan's autism. It is deeply personal and at times painful to read. The words were meant to be a child's keepsake. Instead, they become the documentation of discovery that this child is different than the others. The contrast between the words Rhonda writes to Jordan, and the accounts of family, friends, teachers, and other observers are especially moving. Those on the outside looking in see Jordan's differences long before his mother is ready to acknowledge them. Until she does, she becomes a woman on the edge, and we are right there with her. It is a privileged glimpse into this family's lives. Thank you Rhonda Brunett!

A true account from the heart.,
This review is from: From Autism to All-Star (Paperback)
I recommend this book to anyone working with children or needing information on autism. It is interesting and holds attention while educating the reader about autistic children. It is a positive book about discovery and hard work to over come obstacles.
Rhonda Brunette is completely honest about her experience and it is from the heart and unselfish desire that she presents this book to help other people.
