Through My Eyes takes the reader on a journey through one boy’s life, from when he is a baby to when he starts school. The words represent what the boy is thinking, but he is not able to articulate the emotions he is feeling to his mother or his teacher. As the boy grows, he continues to find himself in new situations that are overwhelmingly uncomfortable, painful, loud, and upsetting. Each day becomes increasingly more challenging. Will the boy be able to cope in this big and scary world?
