Opis

"Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul." Those wise words from Emily Dickinson gave strength to author Edna Wilkinson the day she first looked into the eyes of her tenth child, a boy named Todd, who was born with Down's syndrome. For years, the writer jotted down her secret feelings, hopes and fears, bringing them all together in this short novel that will transport you into the daily life of a young mother and her mentally handicapped son. Most important of all, "A Different Drummer" will remind parents raising a Down's syndrome child that they are not alone.
