Includes index. People use wheelchairs for a variety of reasons, and it’s important to see the person first and not just the tool they’re using to help them get around. This empathetic look at what life is like for someone who uses a wheelchair encourages readers to think about how they can be more accepting of people who experience the world in a different way. Text that presents this sensitive subject in a relatable way, colorful photographs, and fact boxes work together to create a reading experience that is helpful for those who use a wheelchair and eye-opening for those who don't.
