Recenzii
“Elizabeth King Gerlach’s book tells it like it is. Her story has it all—happy, sad, serious, funny—and all at the same time. It’s must reading for parents and important reading for professionals.”

“I read, loved it, and wept all the way. Here you have a heart-wrenching account of autism and how a parent can lead her child through that dark tunnel and into a much sunnier world. It may still be spotted with clouds and thunderstorms, but it shows what can be done.”
Marguerite Kelly, Author of The Mother’s Almanac and syndicated columnist

“In this collection of vignettes about raising a child with autism, Elizabeth King Gerlach writes with tenderness, humor, grace, honesty, and a calm good sense. She is able to convey the confusions, distress, and yearnings of a parent deeply worried about her son, but also the moments of sheer joyfulness at watching this engagingly ‘different’ child grow and learn.”
