The Boy Who Loved Too Much: A True Story of Pathological Friendliness by Jennifer Latson

3.0

This is the coming of age story of Eli D'Angelo, but unlike any other of this genre. Eli was born with Williams Syndrome, a genetic disorder that removes any social skepticism. Eli believes everyone is his friend (even dangerous types) and this sadly makes him a target to danger. The chapters alternate between Eli's story and the history/research of Williams Syndrome, which is often called the opposite of autism.

I read an advance copy and was not compensated.
