Description
Imagine if you were trapped in a Disney movie – all of them, from Dumbo to Peter Pan to The Lion King. And you had to learn about life and love mostly from animated characters, dancing across a screen of colour. That's what happened to Owen Suskind, who happens to be the son of one of America's most noted writers. His father is Ron Suskind, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of bestselling books like The One Percent Doctrine and A Hope in the Unseen. And Owen has autism. Now imagine the twisting 20-year journey of this boy and his family will change the way you see autism, old Disney movies, and the power of imagination to heal a shattered upside-down world.
