In this moving narrative of resilience and pure love, three mothers share their experiences and learnings about life alongside autism -- From the creators of Finding Cooper's Voice, What Color is Monday?, and Tales of an Educated Debutante

Kate Swenson, Adrian Wood and Carrie Cariello are from different parts of the country and backgrounds, but they were brought together by a singular experience: they are each a mother to a child with autism. Together they have shared laughter, tears, victories and the unconditional love that molds their lives.

Kate, Adrian and Carrie have children with very different autism profiles, and in Autism Out Loud they write about their unique experiences on a variety of topics, from diagnosis to caregiving, schooling and aging. Through their varied stories and lessons they’ve learned, these incredible women provide a glimpse of what to expect on the autism journey and show parents that they are not alone.

Written with honesty and heart, the stories within these pages serve as a reminder that even amid the storms of life, there is always hope and beauty to be found. A tribute to the unparalleled love of mothers, this inspiring book illuminates the joys, challenges and everyday miracles of life on the spectrum.©2025 Kate Swenson, Adrian Wood, Carrie Cariello (P)2025 Harlequin Enterprises, Limited Children's Health Motherhood Neurodiversity Parenting & Families Relationships Inspiring Autism

I don’t have a child with autism but I know several who do. I think this will be an encouragement to anyone who is looking for help. I follow these ladies on social media and enjoyed hearing them each read their own parts. Well done!

I love the concept! Three authors sharing each of their stories.. and Audible makes it even better because it’s in each persons own voice.. the chapters flow.. the stories are heartbreaking at first and then go on to tell of great successes, maybe not what some would look at as success, but in their worlds, huge successes! If you have a person with Autism, this book is a must-read..if not, then it brings realization and realness and empathy and joy! What a great read! I’m in awe!
