Sample Book Insights:
#1 I was one and a half years old when I had my first whole memory. I was locked alone in my room with my brother on the other side of the door, laughing. I was wet-faced and shrieking, and I needed my mother to pick me up and place me back in my box.
#2 I can remember my father being at the farmhouse in Hadley, but I can’t remember him ever being there with us. I can remember the pebbles on the driveway, the corn in the fields, and my first steps.

#1

I was one and a half years old when I had my first whole memory. I was locked alone in my room with my brother on the other side of the door, laughing. I was wet-faced and shrieking, and I needed my mother to pick me up and place me back in my box.

#2

I can remember my father being at the farmhouse in Hadley, but I can’t remember him ever being there with us. I can remember the pebbles on the driveway, the corn in the fields, and my first steps.
Insights from Chapter 2

#1

I climbed the Pyramid of the Moon in Mexico with my mother when I was five years old. It was the first time I experienced a feeling close to achievement. I saw that if I continued this strange land-swimming, this intoxicating crawling, climbing, and clinging, I would make it to the very top of the world.

#2

I was five when I went to Mexico with my mother. I was terrified to be in a foreign country, and I looked around at how dirty the hospital was. My father was not safe to be around.

#3

When my mother and I returned to Amherst, we did not go home to the new red house in the woods of Shutesbury. We went to an apartment in the center of the town of Amherst that I had never seen before.

#4

I was constantly bullied at school because I sided with the girls, and because my mother feared I would get sick again if we went back home to my father.
