In this international bestseller, Arthur Fleischmann shares his story of getting to know his remarkable daughter Carly, who was diagnosed with severe autism and an oral motor condition at the age of two.

The book blends Carly's own words with her father's story, offering a firsthand account of the challenges and triumphs of living with autism.
It highlights Carly's intelligence, humor, and resilience as she communicates through typing and connects with her family, therapists, and a wide online community.
