Book Synopsis :

The remarkable story of a father?s devotion to his wheelchair-bound son and how their bond inspired millions of people worldwide.

I have become a walking, talking clich? complete with a boss who makes me swoon and lose all my mental faculties. I can?t seem to stop making a fool of myself in front of him, somehow becoming an uncoordinated newborn giraffe as soon as I get a whiff of him.I don?t think I can keep doing this. It?s embarrassing.
