"Souls is an inspiring book about children with autism and the feelings that we as parents deal with on a daily basis. Sharon and Thomas have really captured the beauty of these very special children." Doug Flutie- NFL Quarterback President of the Doug Flutie jr. Foundation for Autism, Inc. "This is a beautiful book: tender, moving, poignant and most of all, real. Through extraordinary words and pictures, we see that reality of autism. Thomas Balsamo and Sharon Rosenbloom offer us a very special message. In this remarkable book they remind us of the important place people with autism have in our lives and how much all of us who are lucky enough to associate with them can learn from the experience. This book provides us with an unforgettable and enduring experience that shall not be forgotten. Gary Mesibov, Ph.D. - Director of TEACCH Professor of Psychiatry and Psychology at University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill "Often children with autism are seen for their external behaviors and characteristics. Through pictures and words, Thomas Balsamo and Sharon Rosenbloom provide us with insight into the intense emotions, love and perspectives of family members. Most important, we are offered a glimpse into the true essence of these beautiful children...into their very souls." Cathy Pratt, Ph. D - Director, Indiana Resource Center for Autism Board of Directors: Autism Society of America
