"Jonah Adams had been in preschool for less than three weeks when his teachers diagnosed him as autistic. Christina Adams was sure they were mistaken. Then a conversation with her husband's niece, who worked with autistic children, convinced her.".
"Determined to uncover every secret and symptom of autism, Christina was one of the lucky ones. By combining a special diet and the advice of a cutting-edge doctor with one-on-one instruction from speech therapists and behavioral psychologists, she and her husband found a way to seize Jonah's limited window of opportunity for recovery - and she shares her story in A Real Boy."--BOOK JACKET.
