Some Amazon and Goodreads reviews.

"This is such an incredible story, and I'm overwhelmed at the ability of Zak's mum to stay so strong and focused during those first years of Zak's life."

"The best book I have read in a long time. Very emotional and inspirational, and hard to put down when you have started reading!"

"Zak, my wonder boy a story of love and bravery, Debs McEwan has the amazing ability and talent to make the readers of her books actually feel like they are living the story. Within the first few pages of this book I found myself smiling at the joy of an expecting mother then feeling disgust at the treatment she received from so called professionals. The emotional journey carries on throughout.
No matter what she has to endure, a mother's love will never falter. Deb McEwan captures the emotions, bravery and love that Joanne Lythgoe's story deserves."
