Summary:
Meet Austin, an eighteen-year-old whose body is much more fragile than his spirit. Despite the painful effects of osteogenesis imperfecta--a rare disease that makes bones brittle and prone to break--and the challenges of living with autism, Austin is an overcomer who inspires everyone he meets. 'The Unbreakable Boy' is the story of Austin's joyful embrace of life's tragedies and triumphs. Scott, Austin's dad, pulls back the curtain of his life to reveal personal and family struggles, from marital meltdowns to destructive bouts with addiction.
