Not to be dissuaded by the pressure of society at the time, Sally steadfastly decides to keep the boy and raise him side-by-side with his brothers George and Artie. Thank goodness, too, because Isaac has so much to teach them! Told from a number of unique perspectives, A Simple Child explores the impact of prejudice and ignorance towards the Galley family that spans four generations, before and after Isaac’s birth. A gripping family drama deeply rooted in history, get to know this ordinary family and their extraordinary child, and learn how the difficulties they faced in the past colour their future experiences.
