C2008. By Nuala Gardner. This memoir tells the story of a profoundly autistic boy and the dog that helped him open up to his parents, and eventually, the world. Mrs. Gardner’s son, Dale, spent much of his early childhood in the throes of violent tantrums. When Dale was five, the Gardner family acquired a golden retriever puppy, promptly christened Henry by Dale. That very night, the Gardners listened in astonishment as their son spoke to Henry with clarity they had never heard before. And so began an incredible journey that brought Dale over the years to success in having friends, doing well in a mainstream school, and, when the time came, being able to let go. True to life, Mrs. Gardner chronicles the family’s heartbreaking lows and exhilarating highs, but the story she tells is definitely worth the emotional roller-coaster ride.
