Amazon customers are finding the book to be “inspirational, heartwarming, and transformative.” Check out all the reviews… You too will laugh and cry when you read how Patti Smith lovingly and honestly reveals transformative lessons gleaned from forty-plus years of caring for (and being tutored by) her son, Christopher. His diagnosis as a baby at first tilted her world off-axis, only to reveal itself, as the years went by, to be the thing that actually set her worldview at the exact right angle. Referring to her son as her master teacher, Patti learned to see life through his perspective and discover the joy in situations requiring her to dig deeply into her own psyche to identify beliefs needing adjustment. You’ll giggle at chapters titled “Joy in the Who the (Bleep) is Dennis?” and “Listening with Respect to Vulcan Beliefs.” She shares the way she changes with vulnerability and light-heartedness, while giving credit to her clever son who is respectfully referred to as her own Professor Higgins.**
