Carly's voice

Book • 2012
In this international bestseller, Arthur Fleischmann shares his story of getting to know his remarkable daughter Carly, who was diagnosed with severe autism and an oral motor condition at the age of two.

Doctors predicted she would never intellectually develop beyond the abilities of a small child.

However, at the age of ten, Carly had a breakthrough when she typed 'HELP TEETH HURT' on a laptop, beginning her journey toward self-realization.

The book blends Carly's own words with her father's story, offering a firsthand account of the challenges and triumphs of living with autism.

It highlights Carly's intelligence, humor, and resilience as she communicates through typing and connects with her family, therapists, and a wide online community.
