Summary When Moorer's son, John Henry, stopped using his growing vocabulary just before his second birthday, she knew in her bones that something was shifting. Here she details the meltdowns and the moments of grace following the diagnosis of autism, and how the mundane expectations of a parent turn into extraordinary achievements. In sharing John Henry's experience, Moorer creates a riveting narrative that will speak to anyone who parents-- and who has questioned their own ability to do so. -- adapted from jacket
