What people are saying about the Unintentional Humor book:

“I have received great feedback to the office copy of the book. Personally, it hits very close to home. Brilliant Work! - Karola Creel

“Brent’s honest and forthright explanation about living with autism, and Linda’s refreshing approach to parenting are inspirational.  Linda and Brent explain how they have learned to communicate effectively with each other, and how it has changed both of their lives.”- Shannon Sullivan, Autism parent

I serve many individuals with autism and this is positively the best description with examples of anything out there! A pleasure to read. I am still laughing! Thanks to the author’s Linda and Brent Anderson. – Larry Rice

“I enjoyed reading your book.  I believe that this book could be a great learning tool for the blind. Many who are born blind miss the meanings of many of the English idioms. I think your book would be a great asset to school districts that have a blind program. Once again, you and Brent have a great book, and I know you will do well on your adventure in traveling the US and promoting it.” - Rebecca Stuart, Independent Living Instructor to the Blind and Deaf/Blind

“Today my son and I visited the gallery. When he walked in he was drawn to the art, but particularly to your book. :) We stood and heard you tell the “dog house” story. It felt so good to laugh with others about this literal life that I know so well! Your beautiful words about celebrating our kids and their gifts and talents, touched my heart. I have grown weary of explaining that I am not apathetic toward my son’s diagnosis, it’s just that I don’t want to “fix” him. Acceptance of his beautiful and talented mind seems to be met with an immense amount of skepticism. However, today, I felt like for the first time, someone really understood what I have been saying. So, for that, I Thank you! Thank you for sharing your website, and your book and how your heart sees your son!” - Alisa Salem

“Brent and Linda are the perfect duo when it comes to celebrating the literal mind! The have a comical way of turning what can be frustrating to some into an easy learning experience. I introduced my students to their book, Unintentional Humor™, and they instantly fell in love with it!  But when Linda and Brent came into our class and spoke with laughter and games, the boys were nothing short of ecstatic. It was a wonderful presentation that I as an educator learned from as well! I look forward to seeing their next book and hearing all about it in another presentation soon! :) ” - Michelle Lafferty, Special Education Teacher

“I actually HAVE this book and LOVE IT!!!! My daughter has Autism and it’s a sense of relief to feel that you are not the only one out there. My daughter will grow up and seeing Brent, gives me hope that she can do amazing things too =)  Thank you Linda, for being an example of an Awesome Mom, and for wanting to celebrate Autism, because I’d like to do the same, and seeing you put yourself out there, gives me courage to seek out opportunities. I hope our paths cross and I am able to learn so much more from you. You both are an inspiration!!” - Caryn Sanchez

As I read the stories in this book, I was reminded of a quote by the American writer Leo Rosten: “Humor is the affectionate communication of insight.” These stories help in demystifying Autism and help us all to understand that individuals with Autism are so much more than their “label” and their ‘disabilities’.- Richard A. Mesaros, Ph.D. Adjunct Professor: Special Education,Graduate School of Education,California Lutheran University

“Sydney and I were reading your book, Unintentional Humor™ last night and totally cracking up. We were laughing out loud. This book should be on the New York Times bestseller list for humor!” - Kate Brolan

“Thank you so much for giving me the book you wrote and published. It is charming!” - Emily Colson; Author “Dancing with Max”

“I got your book today and think it’s fantastic. I laughed a lot, especially because I can picture Brent saying so much of it.  Congratulations to both of you. You should be proud.” - Phil Ryan

“Your book is an absolute hit!  My wife LOOOOVES it.  She is reading it right now and keeps calling me to tell me about it.  ”God bless you”  You are doing a beautiful and noble thing.” - Orlando Rodriguez (great guy who I bought the Celebrate Autism van from!!)
