In 1963, Philip Hodges was born, the seventh of eight children, inflicted with Cerebral Palsy. Thanks to the loving devotion of their parents, who saw Philip as a gift and not a burden, the author and his siblings experienced the power of love, devotion, and acceptance that forever changed their lives.

In Lessons from Philip, the author shares his experiences growing up and reflects on the immense influence that having Philip for a brother had on his life, shaping his worldview and providing a guide for how to live his life. He wrote the book in the hope that families struggling with the realities of a profoundly disabled child or sibling might be comforted by his reflections and perhaps be able to find the joys amid the sorrows of caring for a disabled child.
