Why read it?

1 author picked Handle with Care as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This is a book that will make you think. The main character sues her obstetrician for wrongful birth - even though she loves her disabled daughter dearly. She follows this path because of the financial pressures the disability places on her family. It made me question who should pay for the welfare of a disabled child and how would this case effect the child and the rest of the family?
