Official synopsis Publisher
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.
