Bill Drover: Author Talk
Tuesday, September 28, 2010 6:00pm
Local Pelham author Bill Drover will be returning to the library on Tuesday, September 28, 2010 at 6:00pm. Mr. Drover will discuss his book, Stumbling Upon the Extraordinary, which chronicles Bill and his wife Jeannie’s experiences with sons Nicholas and Joseph. Twin boys completed their life but as the boys grew, the Drovers noticed Nicholas was not developing at the same rate as Joseph. An official diagnosis gave a name to their fear: autism. In this poignant, emotional memoir, Bill Drover invites us into his world—a place shadowed by autism, but brightly lit by the love of family.
