A Totally Authentic and Moving Memoir. Izzy Paskowitz tells the compelling story of his life and family in Scratching the Horizon. He starts with the story of his father and moves through his parents' marriage, his childhood, surfing career, his own marriage, the birth of his children, his son's diagnosis with autism, the creation of Surfers Healing and back to his father as he receives recognition into his 90s. Izzy does not hold backs. The good, the bad, the ugly, the conflicting and even the uncertainty are laid out bare for readers to absorb and dissect. Rare is the author who will allow his readers such an intimate look into such an amazing life. What is most incredible, over just about anything else, is that with the help of Daniel Paisner, this story is told fully and authentically in Izzy's voice. I read the book in less than 12 hours (a minor miracle for the mother of a child with autism) and felt as though I had just been sitting across from Izzy sharing a few beers as he told me the story. The intimacy of his story was made more compelling as it was faithful to the person Izzy is each and every day. This is not just a story of a surfing life, but an authentic one as well.

Scratching the Horizon. Izzy is an inspiration to us and hundreds of other parents of kids with Autism. Surfers Healing is a wonderful organization we have been a part of for the last 2 years and we have been able to get to know the whole Paskowitz family. We got an even greater view into their lives watching "The Swell Life" on the OWN Network and can't say enough good things about the family, their values and their organization. This is a must read for any parent of a child with special needs or any other free spirit who can appreciate their lives and dedication to the waves and to sharing their gift with the world.
