JKP celebrates World Autism Awareness Day 2011 at the V&A Museum of Childhood

Categories: Autism, Asperger’s syndrome & related conditions, Education, JKP news, Parenting

We are thrilled to be celebrating World Autism Awareness Day (WAAD) at the
V&A Museum of Childhood in London on Saturday, 2nd April!

The day promises to be action-packed with plenty to do and see at the museum’s Making SENse exhibit - including a special reading of The Red Beast at 2 pm!

Author Kay Al-Ghani will sign in Makaton while her son and the book’s illustrator, Haitham Al-Ghani, reads from the book. They will also be on hand afterwards to answer any questions and sign copies of their books, which will be available for sale at the museum gift shop.

Stop by the JKP table in the main lobby to enter the draw to win a free copy of The Red Beast, and for more info about our books and resources on Autism, Asperger Syndrome and related conditions.
