By Sam Sottile

"one of a father's primary responsibilities is to teach values and ethics to his children"

Messages for Anthony, Daniel, and Leah tells the story of an empowering philosophy of living as explained by a father to his children through nightly discussions of quotations. Follow their journey of development - discussions with my children, making the world a better place, love and relationships, the power of the individual, live life to the fullest, the individual as an artist - as some of the more beautiful ideas that humanity has engendered are explained in the father's own words to his children.

Surrounding this collection of poems is the story of a young woman who is non-verbal and has severe or "classic" autism, and her father/caregiver (the author) and how his development prepared him to provide for her unique needs and love her more than words can say

The Leah Books

The Leah Books series tells the story of the care and development of a young woman with severe autism, provided by her father, the author. The heart of the series is a cookbook of the meals that he prepares for her daily (Cooking for Leah) and a book that details the techniques he has developed to provide her care (Caring for Leah). Supporting books of poems (Leah is a Masterpiece and Love Poems for Leah) and quotations (Messages for Anthony, Daniel, and Leah) shaped the author's growth and prepared him to care for Leah. All proceeds from the Leah Books will go to her special needs trust fund.
