Arabella shared that with the young girl’s love and passion for her art, she began sending out a strong message around the world. “Her artwork has been bought by collectors, including Angelina Jolie. For the first time our family took a trip abroad to Stockholm, a remarkable achievement for a little girl who was once isolated at home unable to speak or be around others,” the mother shared. The aforementioned achievement was only the start of Iris Grace’s journey in the field of art and in life. Now, with the aim to give inspiration to others, Arabella decided to tell the child’s story in a book. “I decided to tell our story in our first book ‘Iris Grace.’ Three artists have come together, the painter, the photographer and the illustrator. Through words and pictures, you will be transported into Iris’s world with the help of Thula, their trusty feline artist assistant,” she stated. “I wanted to raise awareness of autism, to show people that there can be a future, a bright one. The techniques that work for Iris may not work with every child but I do believe there is always a key – it is about following the lead of your child,” the mother added. Meanwhile, many people online are saying a lot of good things about Iris Grace, about the ones who truly love her, and about the book. “Iris Grace, just wanted to let you know that your paintings are simply the most beautiful paints I have ever seen,” M. Laursen wrote on Facebook. “I am so pleased that the book is getting the publicity it deserves. You are doing a wonderful service to all the parents out there with children on the autism spectrum,” said G. Watson. “Reading your book at the moment. Absolutely brilliant, I can’t put it down. Being a veterinary nurse, I love seeing the relationship between animals and people and Thula seems absolutely devoted to Iris,” commented S. Goddard. Iris Grace’s book contains 42 beautiful paintings, 15 illustrations and loads of photos. <a href="http://kickerdaily.com/paintings-of-6-year-old-girl-with-autism-bought-by-collectors-including-actress-angelina-jolie/" rel="nofollow">Kicker Daily News</a>
