The book is about a person who's born without sight, but is gifted with a special vision. A vision ─a perspective in life that's more superior than a normal person with sight has.
Though deprived of sight ─was it deprived or was it stolen? It no longer matters. He's born with an I.Q of a genius, born with talents, and unreasonable guts ─imagine a blind person doing something like a skydiving session. Wrestling with other human beings with sight and beating them ─does that exceed the word excepti..more

Sometimes mothers wonder that their children survive to adulthood. Undaunted, Tom Sullivan tempted fate on more than a singular occasion and must have tested his mother's fortitude. Unfortunately, this book is apparently out of print, but the search proved well worth the effort and the wait.

Awesome biography. Kids have been coming into the library asking for books about blindness. I wish we had it to share.
A wonderful auto-biography of a courageous soul.

This is the story of Tom Sullivan. A person that became blind after the moment he was born (due to retrolentalfibroplasia) and had to adjust to life being without something the sighted daily take for granted.
It tells his experiences- from his upbringing to his realizations at being academically bright, his musical career, his struggles with getting on with life all told in a literary flair.
We get insight on what he has gone through from his genius abilities to what he could 'see' from his disabi..more

I'm just old enough to remember seeing Tom Sullivan on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. It must have been a Friday and I was able to stay up past 10:00. I thought he was incredibly inspirational and he was funny and seemed remarkable. For awhile this was one of my favorite books about someone who had overcome a challenge and in an uplifting, comical, seemingly carefree way. Amongst a bunch of books that were all in the weepy, someone dying of something genre that a teen will enjoy, this one..more
this is truly a wonderful story of inspiration. it is not with what you have that you experience everything in it's fullness but it is with what you don't have that you realize how important little things are. there are a lot of little things that go thru life unnoticed, simply because we thought of them with so little value. unfortunately, we have a poor definition and understanding of the word 'value'.

At a time before technology would even the playing field for the blind, Tom Sullivan made his adventurous way in the world with unmatched spirit and determination. I read this story when I was seven or eight, but I've deepened my appreciation for it as an adult. It's inspirational, but more than that, it's hilarious! If you love memoirs, check it out.

Love reading about blind people.. fascinating how they view things and how they do daily activities.. they are more bold and have outlook on life more keenly then most sighted do. I was inspired...I love this sentence that he says from the book.. 'Sight paints a picture of life, but sound, touch, taste and smell are actually life itself.'
Read this book when I was in high school. Very inspirational. Tom Sullivan and his wife named their daughter Blythe (a pivotal part in his story). I fell in love with the name and never forgot it. We later named our daughter Blythe, and she has read and loves this book as well. I think I need to download and read this one again!
Read this in 8th Grade. Had seen the movie starring Marc Singer. The movie is a movie and a false one at that. Tom Sullivan's real story is very interesting. As far as changing things for movie from whats in the book it ranks up there with Midnight Express for falsehoods
This book will make you cry when you read it and is an inspiration to anyone that if you work hard anything is possible.

I guess I'm not into biographies so much.. This man overcame the blindness to achieve many things in his lifetime. It was ok as a book read.
