Aidan's Awesome Adventures Paperback – November 6, 2024

In life, you will met people who are different in some ways, but never less. Meet Aidan. At a young age, he was diagnosed with a condition called Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This means that he learns and communicates differently than others do, but that does not stop him from doing less than his best! Aidan works really hard in school and knows just as much as his peers, gets along with "typical" kids, and, for a mostly non-verbal child, has found ways to communicate, especially through music. Inspired by the greater good of teaching young children and their guardians about autism, Aidan's mother, Kimilee Bryant, has given her son a voice to share his story in Aidan's Awesome Adventures. Within these pages, learn how Aidan loves to dance and sing, even getting a big solo in chorus! How performing certain repeated movements or sounds help him feel better and handle stressful situations. How his friends at school are great helpers by holding his hand when he feels overwhelmed. ASD is something Aidan will have for the rest of his life, but this does not mean that he cannot live his life to the fullest. And to show kindness and learn how to help people like Aidan, you never know the kind of adventure you might find! Kimilee Bryant is a Broadway/Opera performer, music teacher, and speaker. Her favorite role is "Aidan's Mom." She's best known for playing Christine in The Phantom of the Opera on Broadway and worldwide. She won the talent award at The Miss America, numerous awards for performing, and is now helping a new generation find their "voice!" She loves singing in her church, leading the "TRUMPETS" (kids choir), and is passionate about advocating for special needs children. More information at www.kimileebryant.com Read more
