"My name is Mark and I have Down syndrome. I have been an advocate for people with disabilities almost all of my life. I have spoken to businesses, schools and parents to help them understand that people with disabilities also have abilities. We can be great employees, contribute to society, and reach our full potential if we are just given a chance. After all, we are human too. My goal is for everybody with a disability to have a real job with real pay and a real life!” - Mark J. Hublar

Reader Reviews

"A Miracle Named Mark is written with and about love."

"The book is written in a simple, unpolished narrative and mostly jumps from one success to the next. As someone who is also a sibling to a differently-abled brother, I could relate, and because of this, I was able to see the love woven through it. I have no doubt at all that for those who know Mark, and the generations of Hublars to follow, this biography will be treasured and as well received as the man who inspired it himself."

Asher S.

"[This] book is deeply moving, infused with a love that is extraordinary..."

"...it is a story that redefines family, love, and the Christian concept of acceptance. I felt joy reading this book and it reminded me of my experience, many years ago, working in a home for the physically and mentally handicapped persons in my hometown. This book is a wonderful gift of love and faith and a powerful testimony that the most vulnerable ones among us have the power to transform us in ways we can never imagine."

"If somebody offers you an amazing opportunity but you are not sure you can do it, say yes – then learn how to do it later!"

"You will do well to read A Miracle Named Mark. It's a 5-star read...This story challenges what is 'normal' and what is 'possible'. What do we perceive to be a handicap? What limitations have we placed on ourselves, and others? Many insights will equip you to reconsider your views and make different choices. Thank you, Greg...you have given your readers insight into a unique story of courage and determination."

"A Miracle Named Mark...is a heartwarming tale of love, faith, and hope with strong lessons on parenting and acceptance..."

"...the dramatic events taking place in it moved me to the very core. The writing is exceptionally good, at times lyrical, capturing the nature of the love between husband and wife and their journey towards having a second child. A Miracle Named Mark is a story that celebrates life and proclaims the truth that its fragility makes life even more sacred. You’ll find tears rolling down your cheeks as you read this book and you will be irreversibly drawn into the world of the characters."

"A Miracle Named Mark: Based on the Actual Life of Mark J. Hublar, penned by brother Gregory Hublar, an amazing story is shared."

"...Mark found his independence with paid work, and now he is an advocate for persons with disabilities. The memoir is heartwarming, as well as giving readers a broader perspective on the need for respect and acceptance of people with disabilities. The role of the parents, and their decisions over the years, lay out a roadmap for other parents who have a child with a disability. [The book] also includes a number of resources for more information and helpful organizations. An interesting read!"
