Carson is that five- year old that is trying to understand his autistic older brother Griffin. Their mother is always defining Griffin's behavior by stating, "It's just part of being autistic." Carson however hears the word "artistic" instead of autistic. This book is a book about understanding and loving the differences in us all. Jane Webb is a retired school teacher who lives in Avon Indiana with her husband David. They have two grown sons, Blair and Tom. Currently Jane works as a University Coach guiding college students who are pursuing a career in elementary education. During her years in education she was always drawn to the student that needed just a little extra TLC. Her passion was the student that had to overcome challenges in order to learn. One of the greatest joys in teaching is when the misunderstood student finally understands. Her dream is to write children's books about that type of student.
