Summary:
"Kenny Tedford is a charming combination of Helen Keller and Forrest Gump that includes deafness, blindness, an inability to speak clearly until the age of ten, and mental challenges that give him the same child-like innocence that made Gump so lovable. Despite his cognitive impairment, Kenny is a masterful storyteller; he is one of only two deaf people in the world with a master's degree in storytelling, which he earned at the age of fifty-five, almost half a century after being told by teachers and psychologists that he would never complete the third grade, and never work in any field other than menial labor"--
