The Spark is about the transformative power of unconditional love.
If you have a child who's 'different' - and who doesn't? - you
won't be able to put it down

The Spark describes in glowing terms the profound intensity with
which a mother can love her child

Amazing, compulsive reading. Barnett not only fights heroically on
Jake's behalf, she also beats down every other obstacle that life
hurls at her and her family
