Topic: Down Syndrome
What an amazing and inspiring book. Amy Julia Becker puts her personal struggles about dealing with being told the shocking news, "She has some of the features of a Down's baby..." after delivering her first born. Amy Julia is so real and honest {she shares some of her journal entries}. The book almost seems made up. As a new mother she is so hard on herself for the first year of her daughter's life, but she's only trying to figure out why, as such a huge believer in God, He would ever let this happen to her and her family.
I highly recommend this book to any Busy Bee looking for an amazing story about family, hope and encouragement. You will become so engrossed in Penny's story that you might even start praying {I did mention, that she is very religious, didn't I?} or possibly do what I did, and google her for more updates on Penny.
After reading this book you will:
a. start thinking of ways to be a better person to all
b. be more open to others who do have disabilities
c. be more grateful for your life {and maybe even start praying}
d. learn more about down syndrome
e. all of the above!
