About this product

Product Information

She was a beautiful doelike child, with an intense, graceful fragility. In her first year, she picked up words, smiled and laughed, and learned to walk. But then Anne-Marie began to turn inward. And when her little girl lost some of the words she had acquired, cried inconsolably, and showed no interest in anyone around her, Catherine Maurice took her to doctors who gave her a devastating diagnosis- autism. In their desperate struggle to save their daughter, the Maurices plunged into a medical nightmare of false hopes, "miracle cures," and infuriating suggestions that Anne-Marie's autism was somehow their fault. Finally, Anne-Marie was saved by an intensive behavioral therapy. Let Me Hear Your Voice is a mother's illuminating account of how one family triumphed over autism. It is an absolutely unforgettable book, as beautifully written as it is informative. "A vivid and uplifting story . . . Offers new strength to parents who refuse to give up on their autistic children." -- Kirkus Reviews "Outstanding . . . Heartfelt . . . A lifeline to families in similar circumstances." -- Library Journal

  • Let Me Hear Your Voice Gives Encouragement To Parents

    Let Me Hear Your Voice was the second book on autism I read when my son was first diagnosed at age 15 mos. Walking along side Catherine Maurice, as I read through her journey, provided a great source of encouragement and hope in the journey with my own child. The realism of the difficulties encountered in autism, yet the clear treatability of the disorder brought me much comfort. I do feel there were portions of the book that were a little more theatrical than I would expect to find in most lives, yet I also know that many interesting personalities live in the homes that shelter those with autism, so I can't rule that out in total honesty! Just a little flowery for me at times! I now own an autism center and all in all, this book has been a great resource for families seeking comfort and ...

  • Hopeful read

  • book about autism behavior modification

    I began to hear about autism from my sister as she was reading about it and became interested when I heard about a method of behavior modification that was helping people diagnosed with autism to become fully functioning in schools, family, society, etc. This method, pioneered by Dr. Ivan Lovaas, was basically bringing these people "out of their autism." I was intrigued more when I learned my brother-in-law was soon going to be working with a company employing this method. This book is about a family who learns their child has autism. The mother documents all her feelings, thoughts, and emotions through her ordeal, from the hellishness to the joys of such a life event. She writes beautifully and intelligently, appealing to the highly educated and layperson. I learned a lot about autism and ...
