London: Hollywood actress Kate Winslet is all set to become an author with a star-studded new photo book to create awarness about autism.
The 35-year-old actress established `The Golden Hat Foundation` that offers speech training to autistic patients, after being inspired by a documentary called `A Mother`s Courage: Taking Back To Autism` where she narrated the story of an Icelandic woman`s fight to find a way for her autistic son to communicate, reported a website.
The `Titanic` star will pen down the book called `The Golden Hat` which pays homage to a poem that her friend`s autistic son wrote.
The book, which will hit stores this November will feature more than a dozen celebrities like Meryl Streep, Javier Bardem, Christina Aguilera who will sport a special hat that was passed along to each of them.
