Welcome to Holland

In my ongoing reading of Andrew Solomon's book Far From the Tree, I was introduced to the beautiful fable, "Welcome to Holland" written by Emily Perl Kingsley in 1987. A writer for Sesame Street, Kingsley was inspired to write the piece by her own son, Jason, who has Down syndrome. The words are a tribute to families with exceptional children.
