Publisher's Synopsis
Simone Comes Home is a colorfully illustrated children's storybook about a child born with Prader-Willi genetic disorder. The story tells about Simone's challenges in the hospital: "why couldn't she cry really loud or suck her bottles until they were empty ... or wiggle and squirm like most babies do?" and of her parents' wish to "take her home to their little brown house to lie in her buttery yellow room ... and to meet their purry orange cat." The story culminates in the joy of her homecoming. The book may be enlightening to families faced with the same or a similar diagnosis and to all those touched by special needs children.
