"Hey, Bub " was the familiar greeting Tom Prater used throughout his life. He was born with Down syndrome in 1949, and in spite of his disabilities, became a beloved and integral part of his family and community. While his speech was limited to phrases of just a few syllables, he found other ways to communicate and won the hearts of everyone who met him.

In it, his brother Steve-bunk mate and partner in crime-reflects on their time together and the many lessons he's still learning from his older brother. When the world feels overwhelming or complex, we all seek answers from those who seem to have it all figured out. Tom leaves ample clues to happiness through his parables involving marshmallows, swing sets, bowling and dancing....
