Jim Bradford's
The Awakening of HK Derryberry: My Unlikely Friendship with the Boy Who Remembers Everything recalls the inspiring story of how Jim Bradford willingly stepped out of his
comfortable world and into the life of HK Derryberry, a young boy with
multiple disabilities and a bleak future. This book chronicles their
enduring seventeen-year friendship and the discovery of HK's remarkable
gift of memory. Diagnosed with Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory (HSAM), HK has an
extremely rare gift of memory that allows him to recall details of
every day of his life since the age of three.
This book is an amazing memoir of the importance of friendship, and the miracles that are part of those friendships. It's a moving tale that everyone should read.
