About the Book
It has been nearly six years since the birth of the author’s granddaughter Emilie. Over the ensuing years there has blossomed a great love, shared between Emilie and her grandfather, the author’s husband Stephen, who wages a personal battle against Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Emilie’s devotion has breathed life into her grandfather’s “boo-boo” muscles as well as into his very soul. The two have found their own ways to communicate, interact, and have fun together. A story to be enjoyed by adults and children alike, Bigger Than the Sky is the author’s endearing tribute to the extraordinary little girl and the incredible man who happen to belong to each other.
"It's a privilege to read these stories. This book is a lasting tribute to an exceptional little girl and the extraordinary man who will always belong to each other."
