Jeannette Walls reveals how her parents' free-spirit/anti-government attitudes encouraged self-sufficency, as well as extreme poverty. Daniel Tammet's Schreiben might seem slightly stilted, without much emotion, but that is because he is an autistic savant with Asperger's syndrome (sufferers has difficulty identifying with others' emotions). And Terry Ryan's mother only managed to keep her eleven-member family out of the poor house Von winning companies' advertising contests, submitting such poems as:
