This book is the combined works of Ian Weller poetry collections Peace and Redemption and Strength for Autism. It contains the life experience in "venting" poetry from the first collection, Peace and Redemption, and the encouragement poetry from the second collection, Strength for Autism. The poems are originally directed toward the audience in the autism community or those involved with autism. All the poems are a form of self-expression other people may be able to relate to.

Ian Weller was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder at age 2. Experts in the 90s said he wouldn't get past middle school and suggested a list of special education schools to his parents. His parents refused to listen to the "experts" advise and worked to give him the help he would need to succeed. He has surpassed all original expectations. He graduated from the public school system in Northern Michigan taking General Education courses with an average GPA. He went on to go to college and graduated with an Associate Degree and a Certificate of Development in New Media. He has also been inducted into Charlevoix Public Schools Alumni Hall of Fame for working with the Autism Community of North Western Michigan. He may not give himself the credit he may deserve for all he has accomplished. He feels he did what was demanded of him (by his own standards) and what he felt was right.
