As my children have grown, I realize that a family’s “story” is its legacy for future generations. This book retells family stories so that others may share a laugh, gain some insight, and discover that each of us, and our experiences, should be celebrated. We all have a story. We live it in bits and pieces each day. If we keep it to ourselves, it dies with us. Life’s lessons are too important to let that happen. If these stories remind you of yours, please share them with those you love.

Bestellt wurde ein Buch über meinen Ansatz zum Thema Inklusion. Ich habe das Ganze dann in einen autobiografischen Roman gepackt und bin dafür in Bereiche meiner Vergangenheit vorgedrungen, die mich zum Teil vor mir selbst erschaudern ließen.
