Minnesota Parent review

"Fully formed: a father's journey with his nonverbal daughter"
by Beth Hawkins

Minnesota Parent: "Shelf Life", February 2009

"Somewhere in the process of advocating for his daughter's undaunted spirit, Robert comes to believe in himself as a father. Schuyler's Monster paints a haunting picture of the soul's need to be known, as well as the painful way in which becoming a parent forces one to recognize one's weaknesses and limitations."

    You know, of all the reviews of your book I've read thus far, I think this is my favorite.

  5. I finally got my copy of the book and only put it down once when I had to run an errand.

    Schuyler is beautiful and so is your writing. I wish only that I lived near you so that I could meet you both. I think she inspires all of us to be better, fiercer, to take the world head-on.

    I wish I could send you a sticker to sign so I could put it in my book or something!
