Marti Leimbach on her son's autsim01 Apr 2006
When Marti Leimbach's son Nicholas was 3, he couldn't speak, was destructive and uncommunicative. She thought he would grow out of this difficult stage - after all, her daughter has been an awkward toddler and had turned into a cheerful, bright 5-year-old. But when she consulted a paediatrician about her son she was told her was autistic. Marti has now written a novel based in her son's diagnosis and the effect it had on her family, called Daniel Isn't Talking.

Daniel Isn't Talking by Marti Leimbach, published by Fourth Estate - ISBN: 0007217005
