Local Authors Win 2007 ASA Literary Award!

The Autism Society of North Carolina Bookstore staff would like to extend a heartfelt congratulations to local authors Maureen Morrell and Ann Palmer. Their book, Parenting Across the Autism Spectrum: Unexpected Lessons We Have Learned, has just been awarded the 2007 Autism Society of America Literary Work of the Year.

Ann and Maureen have strong ties to the North Carolina autism community and to the Autism Society of North Carolina. Their wealth of knowledge and experience as both parents and professionals have benefited the community tremendously, and their book is a must-read for parents of children with ASD. In our expert opinion, their book has reached "classic" status among the available autism titles (and there are hundreds). The writing is superior, and the feedback we consistently receive is how much the book resonates with its readers.

In honor of the ASA literary award (and to introduce the book to more readers), we are extending a 25% discount to customers who order the book through our bookstore website. Customers will also receive a signed copy of the book, so we hope you'll take advantage of this special offer. Our price is lower than the Amazon.com price, and it is good through July 15th.

Ann and Maureen will receive their ASA award on July 13th at the 2007 ASA National Convention in Scottsdale, Arizona.
