In this episode of Good Distinctions, host Will Wright speaks with Sr. Allison Regina Gliot about her new book, 'Eli's Quiet Friend,' which addresses the needs of neurodivergent children, particularly those on the autism spectrum. Sister Allison shares insights into her religious order, the Daughters of St. Paul, and their mission to evangelize through media. The conversation explores the inspiration behind the book, the writing process, and the importance of creating inclusive content for all children. Additionally, they discuss the role of editors in the publishing process and resources available for parents and educators.

Eli is sensitive to sound. He feels anxious and overwhelmed in a noisy world. But Grandma says God speaks in a gentle whisper. Can Eli brave the loud city to spend some quiet time with Jesus in Eucharistic Adoration?
