Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When people mention autism, they often mean children or young adults and the programs that support them. However, one does not suddenly grow out of being autistic--ASD, ADD, and ADHD. We just grow better at avoiding our trigger areas and developing covering skills. In this compelling book, the author, Diane Fobes, starts with a very open biography explaining her undiagnosed life and how she escaped her diagnosis until she was sixty-five. Then she talks about some ideas on helping our seniors on the spectrum and supports the mothers (and fathers) who are raising a new generation of children and young adults on the spectrum, as well as those discovering that they might have senior relatives who are on the spectrum as well. Enjoy your read.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author of Could It Be Autism? A Parent's Guide to the First Signs and Next Steps Voices from the Spectrum is a compelling collection of personal accounts from people on the autism spectrum and those who care for them, including professionals, friends and family members. The essays in this collection tell of both the positive and negative effects of autism on individuals and families, and pose the question: is a diagnosis on the autism spectrum a puzzle to be solved, or something to be embraced and accepted? The broad scope of this book presents insights into the autism spectrum from many different perspectives - from first-hand accounts of the autistic child's school and childhood experiences to parents' and grandparents' reactions to a diagnosis. A number of chapters written by professionals explain their motivations for working with autistic people and reveal what they have learned from their work and how it has affected their lives. The contributors describe experiences of autism from the mildest to the most severe case, and share their methods of adapting to life on the spectrum. Voices from the Spectrum will appeal to a wide readership of adults and younger people on the autism spectrum, their families and friends, as well as practitioners.

Book excerpt: Reduced to watching new neighbors move in as a form of amusement, Glory Harper is stuck in a wheelchair with a broken leg, bored and itching for excitement. She just doesn't expect it to come in the form of a foot dangling from the end of a carpet as it's carried into her new neighbor's house. The problem is getting someone to believe her. When the police recognize Glory as the woman whose skateboarding accident resulted in a multi-car pile-up, her believability quotient lowers even more. Then Glory realizes Detective Rick Spencer is more interested in her than in her story. But by now she's made enough enemies to put herself and her family in real danger. While she's following what seems to be the obvious path to the culprits, the real criminals are closing in.
