Book Description
Unlocking Jake: The Story of a Rabies Vaccine, Autism & Recovery is about a little boy who regressed into autism following a series of rabies vaccines when he was three and a half. Over a period of several weeks, he stopped speaking, feeding himself, and pottying. He stared, played with the same toys for hours, and had meltdowns. He flapped his hands, walked on his toes, and was terrified of thunderstorms and train whistles.The book spans five years in the lives of Jake, his mother Ann, and his grandmother Jennifer, who tells the story ... from the agony of watching Jake disappear into the world of autism to the joy of seeing him begin to recover. Unlocking Jake is an inspiration and a source of hope and strength for families living with autism. Perhaps more important, it begs the question, "Are today's childhood vaccines safe?" Praise for Unlocking Jake"Jennifer Hutchinson has written a remarkable book. ... Her meticulous accounting of Jake's progress provides both a gripping narrative and a persuasive medical diary-one that documents Jake's medical situation with a precision that most families faced with autism cannot match. ... Unlocking Jake ... should be required reading for every pediatrician in America."Mark Blaxill, Editor-at-Large, Age of Autism; Director, SafeMinds"The rare tale of an exceptionally clear-cut vaccine reaction and the effort to pull this child from the autism abyss is full of information and personal determination. ..."Christina Adams, A Real Boy"This book is a season-by-season account of Jake's terrible struggles with autism and his family's search for answers. I had the privilege of treating Jake a number of times, and this book has helped me understand him and autism in a far more intimate way."Dr. Tod Davis, Developmental Optometrist

Book Description
Bestselling author Karen Kingsbury reminds us that before you take a stand, you’ve got to take a chance. Despite his quiet ways and quirky behaviors, Holden Harris is very happy and socially engaged—on the inside, in a private world all his own. But Holden is an eighteen-year-old with autism. Every day he is bullied at school by kids who only see that he is very different. Ella Reynolds is part of the in-crowd. A cheerleader and star of the high school drama production, her life seems perfect. When she catches Holden listening to her rehearse for the school play, she is drawn to him . . . the way he is drawn to the music. Then Ella makes a dramatic discovery—she and Holden were best friends as children. Frustrated by the way Holden is bullied and horrified at the indifference of her peers, Ella decides to take a stand against the most privileged and popular kids at school. Including her boyfriend, Jake. Ella believes miracles can happen in the most unlikely places and that just maybe an entire community might celebrate from the sidelines. But will Holden’s praying mother, Ella, and a cast of theater kids be enough to unlock the prison that contains Holden? This time friendship, faith, and the power of a song must be strong enough to open the doors to the miracle Holden needs. This contemporary, inspirational read is a standalone novel. Book length: approximately 80,000 words. Includes a reading group guide and a letter to readers from the author.
