In this uplifting and humorous memoir that includes black-and-white
comic illustrations, mother and son tell the story of his growing
up - from facing sixty-seven surgeries before the age of fifteen,
to making friends, moving across the country, and persevering
through hardships. How they tackle extraordinary circumstances with
love and resilience is a true testament to Magda and Nathaniel's
family, and to families everywhere who quietly but courageously
persist.
Praised by R.J. Palacio as "wondrous"-this moving memoir follows a
teenage boy with TC syndrome and his exceptional family from
diagnosis at birth to now. "This touching memoir is a must-read for
anyone who wants to know more about the real-world experiences of a
child with craniofacial differences and his extraordinary family.
It's also more than that. It's a story about the love between a
mother and a son, a child and his family, and the breadth of
friends, helpers, and doctors that step in when the unexpected
happens. It's a story that will make young readers reevaluate the
word 'normal'-not only as it applies to others, but to themselves.
Any book that can do that is pretty wondrous, as far as I'm
concerned." -R.J. Palacio, author of Wonder In this uplifting and
humorous memoir brimming with black-and-white comic illustrations,
Nathaniel and his mother, Magda, tell the story of his growing up
with the same craniofacial syndrome as the boy from Wonder-from
facing sixty-seven surgeries before the age of fifteen, to making
friends, moving across the country, and persevering through
hardships. How they tackle extraordinary circumstances with love
and resilience is a true testament to Nathaniel and Magda's
extraordinary family, and to families everywhere who quietly but
courageously persist.

management in emerging economies. It discusses diverse themes at
the intersection of corporate social responsibility (CSR), green

managerial insights into the complex processes and relationships
that mediate businesses' ability to deliver on their social
development promise, through sustainability and green initiatives.

emerging economy context and responsible management. Featuring
cognate topics on CSR, green marketing, green fashion and green
entrepreneurship, it offers a Sustainable Development Roadmap (SDR)
that is applicable for businesses in emerging economies. This
volume is a valuable resource for professionals and academics in
emerging economies who desire to understand how firms are
