This is not a sad book. It is the story of a family’s triumph over what looked like an insurmountable tragedy. And it *really happened*. Yossi has a life of his own, and Malki and Kalman and the Samuels family have gone on to change the public perception of disability in Israel.
Shalva is a happy place (full disclisure–I am a nurse in their afternoon program), and it brings joy and possibilities to disabled kids and their families, as well as to the community of volunteers and supporters involved with it.
