A Literary Look at Parenting a Child with Autism

1001 Great Ideas for Teaching and Raising Children with Autism or Asperger's book cover

Autism affects one in every 100 children today. Two Portland writers, both mothers of children on the autism spectrum, step away from the clinical and the didactic to take a look at autism through a literary lens. Ellen Notbohm, author of four award-winning books on autism, and Brittney Corrigan, poet and co-editor of the online journal Hyperlexia, will read from books and share poetry as they weave a tapestry of their experiences both triumphant and troubling in raising children with autism.

Saturday, February 4, 3-4 p.m.
