Raising Blaze by Debra Ginsberg
Brand: HarperCollins
Product Description
When you have a child that doesnt fit in what do you do Debra Ginsberg knew that her son Blaze was unique from the moment he was born in 1987. What she didnt know was that Blazes differences would be regarded by the outside world not as gifts but as impediments to social and academic success. Blaze never crawled. He just got up and walked when he turned one. He called his mother Zsa Zsa until he was three. By kindergarten he loved the music of Miles Davis and Ella Fitzgerald. He fears butterflies and is fascinated by garbage trucks. With the same honesty that made Waiting a success Raising Blaze Bringing Up an Extraordinary Son in an Ordinary World chronicles Debras experience in raising a child who has defied definition by the host of professionals who have sought to label his differences. Ginsberg introduces us to a remarkable child and her own unusual childhood. She writes about a family which shows us the redemptive power of faith humour and love. show more
