Review
“This is a delightful book which all parents and teachers of mentally handicapped children should read. Out of her wide experience in a Rudolf Steiner Home-School, the author meets with insight the problems and anxieties of parents whose children are prevented from growing up to be ‘normal’. Far-reaching questions of Karma and reincarnation underlie the basic approach to these children. There is another matter-of-fact approach, when asked why they want to help handicapped children, the teachers reply, ‘Because they are there.’ The book goes straight ahead from this point…
…This little book is a real Christmas story, beginning and ending with Christmas, and giving a glimpse of the way a human being goes -whether or not he is born to be ‘exceptional’ - in striving to bring about the birth of his own individuality.”– Muriel Yalentien 1971 - Anthroposophical Quarterly
