Pretty much everyone who knows me knows that I do NOT do serious books, movies, or even TV. I feel that life has enough challenges to justify my entertainment being purely entertaining. Or at least subtlety disguising the thoughtful stuff in between the adventures or humor. But I started out reading Jenny's books long before anyone, certainly Jenny herself, ever considered that she would have so much serious information and so many life-changing experiences to convey, and I knew I had to stick with her. And I'm glad I did. I admit it, I cried my eyes out several times while reading this book. And I don't regret a moment.

The basic concept that so many children have serious physical illnesses that are contributing to their developmental delays and problems is a critical concept that everyone who loves children should consider. And the journeys of so many families through the morass of autism and childhood illness should be honored. Jenny is an amazing spokesperson and a real inspiration, as are the others Warriors presented in this book. Please read it. ( )
