      When his son Rowan was diagnosed with autism, Rupert Isaacson feared he might never communicate with his child. But when he discovered Rowan responded to horses, they travelled to Mongolia - the spiritual home of the horse - where shaman healing hands banished the tantrums, incontinence and the hopeless isolation. However, a year after Rowan's improvement, he started regressing. Only then did Rupert remember the shaman had told him that he and Rowan must make three more healing journeys. Journeying to the bushmen of Namibia and Australia's coastal rainforests and finally to America's Navajo reservation, Rupert discovered new ways of connecting with autistic children using nature, movement and animals. Through the process of healing Rowan and using his Horse Boy Method, he learned to unlock children from the most severe autistic symptoms. The Long Ride Home is the story of Rupert and Rowan's journeys - of incredible love and impossible adventure, that would test their courage and change their lives, and those of the families who joined them, forever.

Une idée folle traverse alors la tête de Rupert Isaacson.

L'Enfant cheval est le récit de leur odyssée, une formidable aventure humaine où, au fil de leurs rencontres avec des hommes et des femmes extraordinaires, un enfant " différent " va reprendre contact avec le monde, avec la vie. Un livre événement qui sort simultanément dans trente pays, un document émouvant sur l'autisme et le handicap, sur ce chemin escarpé que parcourent des familles pour accéder à une relation qui n'est jamais acquise, et qui encourage à imaginer d'autres possibles

      L'enfant cheval
    • Per i suoi genitori, il piccolo Rowan è il mistero più grande. Perché lui non è come gli altri: è perso in un mondo fatto di lontananza, deserto di persone ed emozioni; la sua mente e immobile, chiusa in una gabbia di vetro infrangibile. La diagnosi dei medici è spietata: "disturbo pervasivo dello sviluppo", che vuol dire autismo. E per Rupert e Kristin è una pietra tombale sul futuro del loro bambino, e la condanna a giorni fatti solo dei suoi silenzi attoniti, dei suoi movimenti ritmici e infiniti, della sua solitudine perfetta e inespugnabile. Finche, per caso, durante una passeggiata con il padre, Rowan fa conoscenza con Betsy, un magnifico cavallo dal pelo marrone e gli occhi intelligenti: tra i due e amore a prima vista. In sella a Betsy, Rowan sembra trovare una via d'accesso alla realtà che gli sta intorno. E goffamente, teneramente, comincia a comunicare le sue emozioni, i suoi entusiasmi, i suoi spaventi di bambino. Di fronte a questo straordinario spettacolo, Rupert decide di tentare con tutta la famiglia un'impresa disperata e insieme sorretta solo dalla speranza: un coraggioso viaggio con destinazione MONGOLIA. La terra dove, seimila anni fa, i cavalli furono addomesticati; la patria del popolo delle renne, tribù di sciamani che vive da sempre in simbiosi con gli spiriti della natura. Qui, tra riti antichissimi e cavalcate nel paesaggio mistico e selvaggio della steppa, la secolare sapienza dei guaritori sembra fare breccia nella mente di Rowan.
