{ "item_title" : "Essays and Humor from an Autism Dad", "item_author" : [" Paul Nelson", "Michael Nelson "], "item_description" : "For almost twenty-eight years, I've been an autism dad. Michael, my son, is autistic and non-verbal; however, his quiet demeanor has provided me with an infinite source of lessons. Mostly, through simple observation, I've come to see life in a much different way. In short, he's helped me to like myself much more than I did as a young man. This book is a simple collection of essays about the insanity we're dealing with currently in the United States. When I began putting them together as a book, I realized every one of these essays, serious or humorous, contained a perspective I've gained from Michael's life lessons. We're a team. In life and in our books, Michael quietly inspires me and I simply steer my words according to the directions he has given me. I think they're good lessons for any life, especially in the ass-backward times we are experiencing during the trump years. (Author's note: I FREQUENTLY don't capitalize his name. He's a pathetic, tiny man who isn't worthy to tie my son's shoes.) Please enjoy a slice of our life and the valuable lessons I've learned from Michael and others with mental challenges. They are beautiful souls with a great deal to teach us, and this book is dedicated to all of them throughout the world.P.N.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers4.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/834/959/9798349591891_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "10.99", "online_price" : "10.99", "our_price" : "10.99", "club_price" : "10.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
