Autism Heroes is a stunning collection of portraits of ordinary yet remarkable families affected by autism spectrum disorders. The book is the result of Firestone's many years of following the lives of these 37 families through her work as a developer of therapeutic programs for children with special needs. Focusing on the themes of love, dignity, hope, and opportunity, the portraits convey the courageous and inspirational lives of their subjects in the face of challenging circumstances. This book offers a very personal view of families and children affected by autism spectrum disorders.
