Detailed Description We all know that autism impacts every member of the family, especially SIBLINGS who often get the short end of the stick. With humor, tenderness and real-life situations, FRENCH FRIES is one of the first illustrated children's books to address the loneliness, anger and fear that many SIBLINGS feel - and hide. Everyone living with a child with autism will relate. Parents, classroom teachers, developmental pediatricians and speech and language therapists use this book as a tool to open dialogue and foster healing in families facing this challenge. FRENCH FRIES will warm all hearts and empower all children. Share this book with a SIBLING you love.

My niece just ordered FRENCH FRIES. She lives in Trinidad and has a four year-old diagnosed with autism. I was crying and laughing as I read the book because it reminded me of my own journey with our fourteen year-old son who has autism. It is absolutely brilliant and captures all the emotions and so many situations. Thank you for making me feel happy and sad all at once Thank you for this book! Write a Review
