| Synopsis: |
A child teaches without intending to...Having severe autism does not stop Annie Lehmann's son Jonah from teaching her some of life's most valuable lessons. "The Accidental Teacher" is a heartfelt memoir about self-discovery, rather than illness, and uses insight and humor to weave a tale rich with kitchen-table wisdom. It explains the realities of life with a largely nonverbal son and explores the frustrations and triumphs of Lehmann's family as Jonah grew into a young adult. This book is a must-read for anyone who has been personally touched by a major life challenge. |
