The Parent's Guide to Down Syndrome by Jen Jacob

In this book, authors Jen Jacob and Mardra Sikora share their experiences and guide you through life with Ds with expert advice from diagnosis to adulthood. Each page teaches you ways to support your child through major milestones; nurture their development; and ensure that they succeed behaviorally, socially, and cognitively.
Jen Jacob is the cofounder and vice president of the Down Syndrome Diagnosis Network. As a part of her role, she creates, moderates, and manages small online groups for more than 2000 new and expectant parents. Jen is the author and a contributor for Unexpected: Stories of a Down Syndrome Diagnosis, available globally. She lives in Iowa with her husband and four children; her youngest son, Owen, has Down syndrome.

By day Mardra Sikora balances a patchwork of community, advocacy, work, and family. She believes in the power of words and writes both fiction and nonfiction to advocate for and with her adult son Marcus. You can find her and Marcus on the blog Grown Ups and Downs; Facebook; Twitter; as well as on various blog networks, including The Huffington Post.
