Book Discussion: January First by Michael Schofield

At age six, January ("Jani") Schofield was diagnosed with one of the most severe cases of child-onset schizophrenia on record. A passionate and inspirational account, January First is a father's soul-bearing memoir of the daily challenges and unwavering commitment to save his daughter from the edge of insanity while doing everything he can to keep his family together.

The Sun Prairie Public Library will have one or more of our regular book groups read and discuss this powerful story and the impact that mental illness can have on the entire family.
