Dr. PHILIP H. SCHARPER

I'm happy to say that my 4-year-old loves this sweet, beautifully illustrated book. He's normally squirmy during storytime, but he sits still for this one. I hope that the authors and illustrator team up again!

"The beauty of this collection emerges from its sweeping inclusiveness, not only of disability's myriad and extraordinary physical possibilities, but of the diverse perspectives of the disabled regarding the nature of their bodies and experiences. Disability _is_ diversity, of mind as well as of body, and this volume is a treasure chest of unique points of view, each given space to breathe a separate truth."

"Editors Diane Scharper and Dr. Philip Scharper, Jr. have selected works from gifted storytellers across the country who are united by their experience with disability - either in themselves or someone close to them. What is remarkable about this award-winning collection is the unadorned, poignant style that grabs the reader from the first sentence and shakes up their previous perceptions"
