Learn moreThe Unbreakable Boy is a raucously tender story of a teenage boy who joyfully embraces life's tragedies and triumphs--and an inspiring story of how his father was transformed through their journey together.
Like any other teenage boy, Austin loves pizza, movies, dancing, and girls. But unlike most other eighteen-year-olds, he has a rare brittle bone disease, was locked in a mental ward as a child, and is autistic. Yet Austin doesn't let any of that stop him from embracing life. His is a world where suffering a broken back is a minor inconvenience and the quest for the ultimate strawberry shake just might be the best day of his life.
Austin's journey dares us to believe that
- miracles are possible;
- hope does spring eternal; and
- we can find joyous moments to celebrate every day.
Written with remarkable candor by Austin's father, Scott, and New York Times bestselling author Susy Flory, The Unbreakable Boy weaves the beautiful and often humorous tale of how Austin teaches his father--and everyone else he encounters--to have faith in God and trust that one day life's messes will all make sense.
