Summary: One of the Best Books
Review: I think this is one of the best books I have ever read. The author does a great job of taking you into her world. This is a must read for anyone with a disability who has ever been told they cannot do something. Also a must read for those without disabilities to see that the abilities of people with disabilities are limitless. I look forward to future books by this talented author.

Summary: Required Reading for families of children with disabilities
Review: Denise made me both laugh and cry - somethimes at the same time. This is a WONDERFUL book about determination, ingenuity and grit all combined with a non-stop sense of humor. Denise shows us how it is possible for people with severe disabilities to thrive dispite society's limiting attitudes. I loved the book.

Summary: Truly one of the best books I've ever read
Review: I'ved never done this before, but I feel compelled to comment on this book. Ever since I heard of the Jacobsen family 9 years ago, they have been my best role models. They truly give me the faith that anything and everything is possible. Denise's tales are so real, thought provoking, and thing I can identify with.When will the seequel be out? David Clark

Summary: Courage and smart thinking makes this family thrive
Review: Intimate, warm, real and absolutely, if sometimes painfully truthful, this is the best adoption story I have read (and I read many). Pulling us into her heart, Denise provides us with the unglamorous, frightful and purging story of how less can certainly become more. Taking a chance on David, this couple wins themselves the badge of passionate parenting.

Summary: Required reading for all adoptive parents.
Review: The Question of David should be required reading for all adoptive and prospective adoptive parents. Their disabilities notwithstanding, the Jacobsons took on a huge responsibility with unlimited risk by adopting a child thought to have disabilities of his own. I laughed and cried and ached all through the story. As an adoptive parent of a child with ADHD, I found Denise's struggle with day-to-day issues an inspiration. How does she do it? Cheers to the Jacobson's and to David!

Summary: Required Reading for families of children with disabilities
Review: This book is a touching look at motherhood and all of its challenges. As a first time mother, I related to the same feelings of inadequacy, doubt, hope and elation that Denise so poignantly describes. My hat goes off to the Jacobsons who share their aspirations and who serve as an inspiration for all parents and parents to be whether they are disabled or not.

Summary: A heartwarming, funny, moving book
Review: This was a very heartwarming story. Reading this book gave me insight to Denise. It's truly amazing everything her and Neil went through to adopt David. I thought it would be an "OK" book, but I was wrong. It was fantastic. I couldn't put it down. I reccomend this book for everyone, as everyone will find something in it to relate too.
