Today on Autism Live, Shannon kicks off Autism Acceptance Week by welcoming Ellen Sabin, the author of The Autism Acceptance Book: Being a Friend to Someone with Autism. This is a wonderful, interactive book that helps children to understand and accept individuals who are different from them. The book also features a free online companion curriculum for teachers who want to work through the book with their class. For more information visit www.wateringcanpress.com. Shannon also welcomes Kerrie Mallory from Autism Will Not Define My Son.com. Kerrie shares some of the upcoming events that she is participating in to raise money for Autism, including an INK 4 Autism event where individuals can get tattoos to raise money and awareness. Shannon recalls shaving her head, exactly one year ago today to show compassion in action for Ryan Eoff.
