Reviews
In her book, A Rainbow Shines Through Clara, the author tells of one girl's journey to overcome communication and sensory difficulties, but also celebrates her creative talents and abilities throughout the story. All individuals with autism have unique and various methods to express themselves. This story teaches the importance of taking extra time and having patience with others no matter how they communicate with us. Clara, like most individuals with autism, want to share their love and have a sense of belonging. The author does a good job at emphasizing how much we can learn and discover from those like Clara, who is an inspiration to all of us. -Eleanor Nova
"""A Rainbow Shines Through Clara"" tells the heartwarming story of Clara, a young girl with autism. Clara overcomes her communication barriers through music and her amazing talent to draw. Clara's teachers, parents, and siblings work together with Clara to help her explore her unique talents for art and music. This book shows that while not everyone is born with the same capabilities, each of us are born with special talents. Even though we may seem different to others, theses differences can bring a world of joy. -Review by Eleanor Nova"
