5.0 out of 5 stars a small masterpiece, 7 Feb 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Special Siblings: Growing up with Someone with a Disability (Hardcover)
=Special Siblings= is a small masterpiece focusing on both the world of the developmentally disabled and the often-forgotten world of their ``normal'' siblings. McHugh's unflinchingly honest, warm, empathetic look at the mixed emotions and unique responsibilities ``normal'' siblings face should be a standard reference book not only for those working with the developmentally disabled, but everyone out there who knows someone with a special sibling...and everyone out there who doesn't.
