Los Angeles, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/06/2015 -- Drawing Sylvia: An Autistic Child Speaks encourages developing unique strategies for parents in relating to their autistic children.
Kal-Ba Publishing was established in order to offer creative books that would be of benefit to readers worldwide.
We are proud to announce the release of Drawing Sylvia: An Autistic Child Speaks by Katherine Yu, the mother of Sylvia who was diagnosed with autism.
Statistics show that over a million families in the USA have an autistic child at home, and this number increases each year. More than 3,000,000 Americans are affected by ASD (Autistic Spectrum Disorder) while there are tens of millions of autistic people worldwide.
Author, screenplay writer, editor, TV/film producer and mother to three beautiful daughters, Katherine Yu has written this book to help other parents in the same situation. She understands the worries, fears, confusion, anger, denial, frustration and other emotions autistic children's parents feel.
Refusing to acquiesce, she faced the challenge and was able to unlock Sylvia's world through art. At age three, Katherine put coloured pencils and paper in front of Sylvia (now ten-years-old) who began to express herself through drawing, which proved a monumental breakthrough for her.
The author encourages parents to fight for their children who are not able to speak for themselves. They will discover which keys will unlock their world—art, music, touch, dance, pets—enabling them to communicate the same way Katherine Yu was able to for Sylvia.
Kal-Ba Publishing is honoured to be able to offer Drawing Sylvia: An Autistic Child Speaks by Katherine Yu this spring.
