Summary: my son` understanding of his own albinism
Review: I bought this book to help my son Cameron and myself learn and deal with his albinism. The book has alot of wonderful pictures of people that look just like him. The layout was very simple so I could understand it and then relay it back to my son. The parts we both liked best were the different stories about albino`s.They were treasured by many different cultures. The american indians especially worshiped someone with very light color. To them it was a sign of good luck from their god. All different races also can have albinism of varing severeness. I would recommend this book to anyone who wanted to understand what people like my son go through everyday.I am so glad that I have had the oppertunity to relay my story to someone who cares.

Summary: living with albinism
Review: I really enjoyed reading this book. I found it to be very informative.I have a son that is albino and I now see that there are many other albinos and what they experience.I also enjoyed reading about some of the genetics of albinism.I was also pleased to see my uncle in the book. Albinism runs heavily in my family. The research that was done to make this book was phenomenal.I especially liked that this book is designed for children to help them get a better understanding of albinos and may teach them more sensitivity.
