Bentonville’s own Celeste Shally will read her children’s picture book, Since We’re Friends on Saturday, April 5th in the Children’s Department of the Bentonville Public Library. This colorfully illustrated book is a story of compassion, understanding and friendship between two boys, one who has autism spectrum disorder. Being patient and accepting change can be much easier with a friend who can help.
One in every 150 children lives with autism. Learn more about this complex developmental disability during April, Autism Awareness Month. Information from the Autism Society of America will be available as well as a display of Bentonville Public Library materials on this topic. For more information, contact the library at 479-271-6816.
