A Young Publisher with Autism Thrives
PUXICO, Mo. --
Huge accomplishments are starting to pile up for one Puxico seventh grader.
Jacob Robertson performing.
He refuses to let autism get in his way.
The diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome was no doubt a challenge, but one 12-year-old Jacob Robertson took head on

He's a musician and quite the writer, as he even just got a book published.
