My grandson Noah got this book from the author today

The author is a frequent visitor to the Panera my son in law manages. Today he showed up with the book dedicated to my grandson Noah who has autism. The author is the son of poet Margaret Robison and the late John G. Robison, former head of the philosophy department at UMass.

I seem to recall reading a book by his brother, and didn't even realize that I had also had this guy's other book, Look me in the eye (or something; don't look me in the eye?)

But who is his brother? I'm not going to google or amazon. I will just wait for the answer to either come to me or in this thread.

Very cool to have a signed book!
