Everyone knows about "Chicken Soup for the Soul", books filled with heart-warming stories that capture the essence of human beings being human. Since the cave man days, people have shared their life stories around the campfire. Stories are what connect us at the heart level and pass from generation to generation. "Chicken Soup for the Soul" is also one of the most well recognized and best-selling book series on the planet and has become ingrained in our hearts like stories from the bible.
Karen Simmons, CEO and founder of Autism Today, the nation's largest information clearing house, is also the mother to six, two with special needs, and is the inspiration, co-author and driving force for "Chicken Soup for the Soul, Children with Special Needs" which is co-authored with Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen and Heather McNamara. Ms. Simmons will tell the audience how the book was born, a little about her own children with special needs and share special heart-felt stories from this highly acclaimed book. Ms Simmons's passion has led her to create many titles, one of which is the "The Official Autism 101 Manual" which won the IPPY Gold Medal in the medicine category and the newly released "Autism Tomorrow, The Complete Guide to helping your Child Thrive in the Real World". Ms. Simmons will be available for book signings following the presentation.
