Three Gorgeous Girls

About the Book

As this story begins, who would have imagined the impact the arrival of the three gorgeous girls would have on these three apparently ordinary families? Danny’s family knew that she was going to be born with Down’s syndrome, she but had no idea how much she was going to teach them and enrich their lives. Lauren’s family took longer to realize that they needed to come to terms with their daughter’s autism. And Alice’s family, though not directly affected, found themselves in the thick of it, learning from and supporting their friends as they all grew up together.
