Paperback. Zustand: Good. The Wisdom of Sam celebrates the precious gifts of life and the innocence of childhood. At the book's heart is the story of a grandfather and his remarkable grandson, who share an indelible bond. Each one faces a unique set of challenges--quadriplegia and autism.

These lessons are gentle reminders of what we once knew, what we often take for granted, and what matters most.…
