"Today you can buy books by the bushel on ways to teach kids with severe disabilities how to do basic things....You can attend numerous conventions and conferences, where the authors of such books showcase their techniques and argue over which teaching method is best.....Something rich, however, is missing from almost all those texts: most fail to show how two people can sometimes come together as friends and teach each other valuable things without consulting a book at all." (p.23) This book does not fail. The illustrations by Martha Perske are also wonderful. Keyword: Friendship
