Product Description

“Fantastic read.” “A heartwarming plot.”

“This story touched my heart. So worth reading.”

“Was so interested in this book that I decided not to take my sleeping meds so I could finish it last night. I reluctantly read the last page at 2 a.m. I didn’t want it to end.”

“Impossible to read the last chapter without a tear…or at least a lump in your throat.”

In an age (late 1960’s and early 1970’s) when charlatans and quacks reigned in the treatment of autism, and when “refrigerator mothers” were blamed for the disorder, Peggy Raintree, a brave young mother, refuses to believe the myth that she caused her son’s condition by rejecting him at the breast—so she sets out to find her own answers. But will she be prevented from using her creative, new ideas to reach her strange little boy? And will he ever be able to show her his true face?

Peggy deals with the pressures in her life with strength and grace, and even in her darkest moments never loses sight of her goals. She is not perfect, either as a parent or spouse, but she is warm, clear-thinking, and brave.

The incidences of autism have skyrocketed in the last twenty years. This novel dramatizes the struggle to understand this phenomenon. It explores the foolish medical ignorance of the last forty years as well as the roots of the promising new ideas that have helped hundreds of autistic boys and girls in recent years.

“Very few books have the power to make me weep, but the last scene with Billy made me bawl.”Product Description
