A heartfelt and honest tribute to a child who struggled so much during their short life. It's a painful reminder of how short life can be how tragic mental illness is on families.

I thought it was brave and honest.

Beautiful tribute to a son gone far too young. I originally picked this book up because I work with children with autism. I, of course, want to learn as much as I can to help my own clients. I have to say I immediately adored Auggie! His father shared things about Auggie that made me just love him as he was! I think the book a very brave memoir to share pieces of your son and pieces of your own grief at his loss. I will try to practice extravagant kindness in Auggie honor. Thank you for sharing such a personal story, being brave enough to write it, and teaching lessons along the way!

Thank you to NetGalley for the copy of the book and the publisher for granting me access to such a good book.
