Michael Schofield’s daughter January is at the mercy of her imaginary friends, except they aren’t the imaginary friends that most young children have; they are hallucinations. And January is caught in the conflict between our world and their world, a place she calls Calalini.  Some of these hallucinations, like “24 Hours,” are friendly and some, like “400 the Cat” and “Wednesday the Rat,” bite and scratch her until she does what they want.  They often tell her to scream at strangers, jump out of buildings, and attack her baby brother.   At six years old, January Schofield, “Janni,” to her family, was diagnosed with schizophrenia, one of the worst mental illnesses known to man.  What’s more, schizophrenia is 20 to 30 times more severe in children than in adults and in January’s case, doctors say, she is hallucinating 95 percent of the time that she is awake. Potent psychiatric drugs that would level most adults barely faze her. A New York Times bestseller, January First captures Michael and his family's remarkable story in a narrative that forges new territory within books about mental illness. In the beginning, readers see Janni’s incredible early potential: her brilliance, and savant-like ability to learn extremely abstract concepts. Next, they witnesses early warning signs that something is not right, Michael’s attempts to rationalize what’s happening, and his descent alongside his daughter into the abyss of schizophrenia.  Their battle has included a two-year search for answers, countless medications and hospitalizations, allegations of abuse, despair that almost broke their family apart and, finally, victories against the illness and a new faith that they can create a life for Janni filled with moments of happiness.   A compelling, unsparing and passionate account, January First vividly details Schofield’s commitment to bring his daughter back from the edge of insanity.  It is a father’s soul-baring memoir of the daily struggles and challenges he and his wife face as they do everything they can to help Janni while trying to keep their family together.

Couldnt help thinking that this story could be in the same semi fictitious realm of James Frey. The entitlement and arrogance of these parents who dropped their violent, seriously disturbed child onto the laps of various teachers and expected them to control her behavior when the parents themselves couldn't. They demand that educators mainstream Jani and try to ignore the school's increasingly frantic pleas for parental intervention. Admittedly you can understand why living with this problem would be exhausting, but these parents' aggrieved bullying of concerned professionals trying to help their child was really offputting.As others have noted there are incessant references to Jani's IQ, as if that justifies the out of control behavior; they can't pay their rent without crowd funding but think it a good idea to add a second child (who also grew up to be severely mentally ill) and an occasionslly abused dog to their toxic stew of a family.Seeing the psycho Susan on Dr Phil was worth a thousand words in describing the galloping craziness of this parent. In short, the book WAS interesting, but the whole story seems to be seriously askew. Still wondering what wasn't revealed as to why Michael would be so unsurprised by a late night visit from Child Protection? Why he gives one paragraph to his own disturbing mental illness in childhood? Why one casual reference to the fact that he may have caused Shaken Baby syndrome in Jani? WTF?
