To wrap up Autism Awareness month, I wanted to make everyone aware of a book about Autism written by someone we all know here on Gymbo’s Webkinz Blog!  This book The Colors of Autism by Brianne Taylor is now available for purchase on Amazon.com & applehillpublishing.com.

Autism does not last only during the month of April.  Autism is a challenge to many people and families every day.  Be kind and be a friend to everyone with Autism every day!
