"幸"與"不幸",只在乎一念之間,作者透過患有自閉症的兒子,身心體現了這段寶貴的心路歷程。由起初的自怨自艾,到後來感謝上天,她體會到兒子的到來是為她的生命增添色彩,從而學懂生命的意義。

此書行文淺白,感情細膩,適合一般讀者,作者希望藉此令人對自閉症,甚至生命,有多一份了解,多一份體會,多一份感恩。

This book chronicles the experience and spiritual journey of a mother of an autistic child, uncovering the myriad of difficulties that face autistic children and their parents. Told from the perspective of the mother, the book shows how, in fighting for the rights and best possible opportunities for the autistic child, the mother has turned a curse into a blessing.

The book will have resonance for parents of children with autism and other learning difficulties. It demonstrates that however difficult it is to bring up children with special needs, these difficulties are not insurmountable.

The book addresses issues beyond autism and motherhood, such as discrimination, opportunities and participation, purpose in life, etc. Therefore the readership is not confined to parents of autistic children. The book will provide good food for thought for anyone with an interest in people and life in general.

While there are books authored by parents of autistic children, they are mostly published overseas. The majority of these books aim at providing parents with tips on how to parent autistic children. Locally, there are a few books about the experience of parents of children with special needs but they are all written in Chinese.

The book is written in an accessible style and can easily appeal to the general reader.

Note: if you cannot read chinese but wish to purchase this book, please purchase it from yesasia.com or email us admin@red-publish.com.
