When Mike and his wife adopted their son, they knew he had some developmental delays. But they never imagined that he would be diagnosed with autism. As they navigated the challenges of raising a child with special needs, Mike learned that autism is not a deficit, but a different way of being in the world.

In this book, Mike shares his story with candor and compassion. He writes about the struggles and joys of raising a child with autism, the importance of early intervention, and the power of love and acceptance. He also offers practical advice for parents and professionals on how to support children with autism and their families.

One Father's Story of Autism, Adoption, and Acceptance is an inspiring and essential read for anyone who wants to understand autism and its impact on families.
