Trade Review
"A riveting book: honest, fierce, and complex…A beautifully crafted, complex investigation into what it means to be fully human and fully loved, both as a parent and as a child. Everyone should read this book." -- Virginia Holman, author of Rescuing Patty Hearst: Growing Up Sane in a Decade Gone Mad
"Parents of special-needs kids will find this story particularly inspiring, and its universal message of love and acceptance should speak to a much wider audience." -- Publishers Weekly
"Beautiful Eyes is honest, sensitive, exquisitely observed. A memoir not just for the immediate family of a child with Down syndrome, but for the whole human family." -- Peggy Payne, author of Sister India
"An unflinching look at [Paul’s] parenting experience… Paul’s book can help families in similar situations feel less isolated." -- Corbie Hill - Seattle Times
