Scantic Books is proud to present this memoir of being a mom on the verge of needing a padded room while raising a soccer diva daughter and a big-hearted son on the Autism spectrum. In a book composed almost entirely of some of the best Facebook posts ever written, Trisha Hall-Muller explores a range of subjects. Her children, of course, are center stage. If she’s mourning the loss of a close friend, recalling her own childhood, reflecting on her career as an educator, or digging into her own psychological makeup, her kids are always there, grounding her. Trisha’s strength as a writer is her ability to capture moments that might elude less observant eyes. She discovers the essential human qualities of humor, insight, annoyance, or even pure love with precise description and distinct dialogue. Nothing escapes her notice, and she translates her observations into deeply affecting passages that might range from a single sentence to a full-length essay. She does it all in a tone that pokes fun at herself and the world around her with biting commentary that always manages to avoid cruelty and pettiness while returning to hope and gratitude. Above all, this book is relentlessly optimistic in the most realistic way possible. Trisha’s writing is a testament to the power of a good attitude—generously spiced with a keen eye for irony. This book is truly all the feelings all at once.
