For the first time, the remarkable couple depicted in The Blind Side tells their own deeply inspiring story

First came the bestselling book, then the Oscar-nominated movieâ??the story of Michael Oher and the family who adopted him has become one of the most talked-about true stories of our time. But until now, Leigh Anne and Sean Tuohy have never told this astonishing tale in their own way and with their own words.

For Leigh Anne and Sean, it all begins with family. Leigh Anne, the daughter of a tough-as-nails U.S. Marshal, decided early on that her mission was to raise children who would become "cheerful givers." Sean, who grew up poor, believed that one day he could provide a home that would be "a place of miracles." Together, they raised two remarkable childrenâ??Collins and Sean Jr.â??who shared their deep Christian faith and their commitment to making a difference. And then one day Leigh Anne met a homeless African-American boy named Michael and decided that her family could be his. She and her husband taught Michael what this book teaches all of us: Everyone has a blind side, but a loving heart always sees a path toward true charity.

Michael Oher's improbable transformation could never have happened if Leigh Anne and Sean Tuohy had not opened their hearts to him. In this compelling, funny, and profoundly inspiring book, the Tuohys take us on an extraordinary journey of faith and loveâ??and teach us unforgettable lessons about the power of… (plus d'informations)

The Touhy's caught a lot of breaks that the average person doesn't. But after reading the book you can't help but conclude that their concern for children on the margins is sincere. ( )

This is a good follow-up to the movie The Blind Side. If you've seen the movie, you should read this book. Sean and Leigh Anne fill us in on how it really went down. They tell us all about their back story and what makes them the way they are. There are mini-chapters written by their kids, Sandra Bullock, and Tim McGraw. A very inspirational book. ( )

The true story behind the Blindside story/movie. Truth is stranger than fiction. The Tuohy family were amazing and very generous with the time and money. Charity begins at home and we need more charity in this world. ( )
