"A gripping first novel on a subject that affects millions." -- David Baldacci

"Farmer's Son may use dyslexia as a backdrop, but its real story is about the universal needs we all share to be free of shame and connected to our families. This is a read everyone will enjoy." -- Jewel, Singer/Songwriter, Dyslexic 

"Farmer's Son is a page-turner, full of characters you come to care and hope for. It is a story of family pride and family secrets; of cruelty and fear; love and redemption. It traces three generations of the McAllister family and the awful cost of the myriad ways we find to misunderstand each other. You will think about this book, and Garrett, Daniel and Bobby, long after you've finished it . . . This one is a winner." -- Robert Bausch, Winner, John Dos Passos Prize in Literature 

"Wow. An adult book for dyslexics. Thank you. N.E. Lasater is an excellent writer and this is a wonderful book." -- Victor Villaseñor, Three-Time Pulitzer Prize Nominee, Dyslexic 

"This is an enlightening and uplifting story. Those of us with learning disabilities will find special meaning but everyone will enjoy the story of Bobby and his family. A thoroughly good read." -- Thomas H. Kean, former Governor of New Jersey and Chairman of the 9/11 Commission 

"As a dyslexic, I know the many challenges of learning to read and write. N.E. Lasater has written a first novel which I believe readers will find captivating. It is especially worth the struggle for a dyslexic, giving us characters and experiences to identify with. N.E. Lasater has a true understanding of the struggles and isolation many feel. I highly recommend Farmer's Son." -- William Gaston Capperton III, former Governor of West Virginia and former President & CEO of the College Board 

"A great read . . . If I could have changed but one thing growing up, it would have been to understand why reading and spelling were so hard." -- Bill Samuels, Jr, President & CEO Maker's Mark Bourbon, Dyslexic
