Moderators Gregory Matthews Posted August 7, 2017 Moderators Posted August 7, 2017 Jennifer Latson. The Boy Who Loved Too Much: A True Story of Pathological Friendliness. Simon & Schuster. Eli D'Angelo was born with Williams Syndrome. This is a situation where he was born without emotional boundaries. He greets all with enthusiastic huge and is a source of endless joy, regardless of the situation. This book tells his story beginning at the age of 12, and that of his single-parent who had decided to raise him the best that she could. In this book you will learn of the gifts that he brought to life and people as well as the challenges that were faced. One telling event is the experience of his 8th grade classmates as they learned to understand and relate to him. Give this book a try. You just might gain something from it. NOTE: I have not yet read the book. My information comes from a short article in the July 28, 2017 issue of The Week. (See page 20.) Quote Gregory
