My First Electronic Book Saving Deets By Zack Gonzalez

I owe Zack an apology. I got an electronic copy of his book Saving Deets a few months ago. I just was not in the right frame of mind to sit down and read what I thought would be a slog fest through the trials of initial Diagnosis and the heartbreaking frustration all of our families deal with. Maybe it was scary just the thought of having to read the book on the computer. You know I am kind of old school.
To my surprise both the ease of reading on the iPad and the content of the book made this much more than a page turner. Zack has a spirit of honesty, hopefulness and wisdom beyond his years. He details his relationship with his brother but there was so much more. Again, this was one of those books where, going in I assumed a downer. Zack went out and got people to echo the refrain of the moment. Twist and turns abound.
It is so nice to learn how an advocate comes of age. Zack's stories just made me smile. It is an easy weekend read with many resources for the new to Autism Community. It also is not dry and cumbersome that the mainstream community should want a peak.
I was especially touched when Zack counseled that we need to look after ourselves. It is so easy as advocates to pour your heart soul and basic energy into others that we can neglect the ones we are fighting for. For a first time author it was amazing. I will be first inline for future projects by this young advocate. Thank you Zack for allowing us a peek into your families world.
If I did not make it clear... I highly recommend this book. Great gift for Family members this Holiday season. Especially a Brother or Sister dealing with a family member on the spectrum. TannersDad Tim

If you are a parent... Love your child unconditionally. Do not let your child feel they are any less because they cannot communicate the way we do or look after themselves. Do not forget to look after yourself and your significant other. ( If you don't have one find one...There is someone out there for everyone. You deserved to be loved also). Join a church. Speak to your friends. Keep up the good fight.
