Reseña del editor:

This is the story of Cavitt as told by his maternal grandfather Papa Bill Cavitt. From the moment he was born, this perfectly formed infant boy became the focus of many people's lives. This is a documentation of how he impacted his papa's life. In this book the reader will vividly see how he also influenced others. The story shows a journey from birth to the end of the first two years of Cavitt's life; which closely corresponds to the infancy stage of a person's developmental process. It was written as a record for Cavitt to read when he is old enough to understand just how much he is loved by his family. This is a story that may also help others who find themselves going through the same emotional whirlwind when a baby who is blind is born into their family. This story illustrates the developmental stages of well-being for a child and how these stages are impacted by blindness. You will take a journey with Cavitt and see how he developed physically, psychologically, cognitively, socially, and morally during the first two years of his life. The title and letter size of the title is very important to Cavitt's story. First, he is Cavitt and will always be Cavitt. Secondly, at the moment this book was finished he was in that temporary state of being two, but is now on a journey toward three, four, five, and beyond. Cavitt is a person who is blind. This is a reality and cannot be reversed. However, in the scheme of his lifespan it must become a characteristic of Cavitt that does not dictate his life, merely influence it. Therefore very small letters!
