ABOUT THE BOOK:

Jesse Horn came into the world a perfectly sweet baby boy, but when he was two years old, things started to change. He wouldn’t make eye contact, he wouldn’t speak, and his temperament became unpredictable. After seeking a diagnosis, the family’s fears were confirmed: Jesse had autism. After two years of Applied Behavioral Analysis Therapy, life started changing once again. At the age of nine, a chance encounter with a unique sport would help Jesse discover a passion that would skyrocket his personal growth and allow him to embrace a newfound sense of self-confidence.

 

His story will lead families facing autism to hope: hope that those with autism are so much more than a diagnosis. They are capable of discovering life-fulfilling passions and defining for themselves what it is to live with autism.

 

Jesse has gone on to earn international titles in Sport Stacking with Team USA, is a motivational speaker and ambassador, and has guest-starred on CBS’s The Doctors.
