Fire and Ice is pleased to once again be a host of the Annual
Autism Awareness Giveaway Hop
from April 11th to 17th
Hosted by:
Lindsay @ Just Another Book Addict
Heather @ Fire and Ice
Pixie @ Page Turners
April is Autism Awareness Month. To help spread the word about Autism we are hosting a giveaway hop.
Each participating blog is hosting a giveaway. You will find lots of variety among the prizes. Some of the blogs are giving away prizes that relate to autism, other blogs are giving away gift cards or other prizes and posting information about autism to help make others aware.
We realize the causes and treatment of autism can bring controversy. The point of this giveaway hop is simply to make people more aware about the subject by sharing information and experiences.

Currently 1 in 88 children in the Unites States is diagnosed with autism according to the Centers for Disease Control Prevention, 1 in 54 boys. In my home state the statistics are staggering, One out of every 47 Utah children have been identified as having an autism spectrum disorder, the highest rate in the country, according to new data released by the CDC. I have two children on the autism spectrum and my goal is to reach out to other parents to make them aware that there is hope.

You can see our story at http://www.parentingpartner.blogspot.com/.

Our giveaway: I have included books that include an autism spectrum character or are resources for children, teens and adults here. We are giving away one book of your choice up to $15 from the list to Fire and Ice readers.

To enter our giveaway fill out this form. Good luck 🙂

    Autism is an extremely challenging condition to live with, it affects everyone in the family and depending on the severity really hinders the child/adult affected. This hop/giveaway is close to my family and any awareness it greatly appreciated!

    My little neighbour has been diagnosed with autism. Sometimes he is really nice, but when he’s got a bad day, there’s no way how to get him to do something or to stop him from doing something. I haven’t got my own children, but sometimes I doubt whether I’d be able to be so patient as his mum is…I admire all parents who help their children with autism to live their live fully..

    Thanks for the giveaway
