This text looks at disability mainly from the perspective of the disabled child, their families and their helpers. It'should also be relevant to the able-bodied child, helping to give them a platform to better understand and learn to support the disabled children around them. The overall tone of the book is a positive one, yet It'still acknowledges that it can be very frustrating for a disabled child in a world built for able-bodied people. It covers the full range of emotions which a disabled child may feel, as well as the'sometimes complex feelings of the people around them.
This picture book introduces key concepts and ideas about disability in an accessible and imaginative way... Issues such as preconceptions, forms of disability, types of school, learning disabilities and attitudes towards disability are explored using a gentle but effective style. -- Booktrusted 20021001
