4.0 out of 5 stars A heart rendering account of one family's treasure!, September 29, 2005
Genre: Non-Fiction/Journal
Title: He has Up Syndrome not Down Syndrome
AUTHOR: Caroline Brandt
Caroline Brandt is a daughter, mother and grandmother like millions of other women. This is the true story of how her life was changed by a lovable little boy named Riley her grandson who has Down Syndrome.

Written in journal form, this tiny book tells of the trials and tribulations that a family experiences with a special needs child. It is written in first person and explores the emotional roller coaster of coming to grips and learning to accept this new child and all of his challenges. The story covers the period from birth to the start of school.

Although the book is directed at a specific demographic, it is a heart rendering tale and an informative read for everyone. The vocabulary and style are simplistic and remind the reader of a `chit chat' between friends, around the kitchen table.

Only 61 pages, it is a quick read.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, January 31, 2007
This book tells of a grandmother's reaction to the birth and ongoing life of a down syndrome boy. I bought it in the expectation of learning something useful about another person's view of this syndrome. I was very disappointed as the book was very slight, ill written, and I learnt nothing of the little boy himself. His fears and pleasures and his joy or sadness in life were not touched on. I admire the grandmother's desire to share her experiences but for me they were too closely focused on herself . Basically when you could forgive the poor writing , the book was dull. I also have a grandson with the same syndrome and I learnt nothing new here.
