COME ON A JOURNEY THROUGH CHILDHOOD with this anthology of twenty-two autobiographical stories from the very best writers in the disabled community.
'Honest, hopeful, hilarious and heartwarming.' Cerrie Burnell
From birthday parties, to navigating the sports field, to being given random free stuff, to juggling hospital visits alongside social lives . . .
These twenty-two true stories capture the highs and lows, the tears and laughter, the friendships and fallouts of growing up with a disability.
Whether you're disabled yourself, or know someone who is, or want to better understand the experience, this book is a window into the young lives of these disabled writers: their stories, in their own words.
Edited by James Catchpole, Lucy Catchpole and Jen Campbell. With contributions from Ali Abbas, Polly Atkin, Imani Barbarin, Jen Campbell, James Catchpole, Christa Couture, Carly Findlay, M. Leona Godin, Eugene Grant, Jan Grue, Matilda Feyisayo Ibini, Ilya Kaminsky, Sora J. Kasuga, Jessica Kellgren-Fozard, Elle McNicoll, Daniel Sluman, Nina Tame, Rebekah Taussig, Steven Verdile, Alex Wegman, Ashley Harris Whaley and Kendra Winchester. Illustrated by Sophie Kamlish.

Acerca del autor
James runs a children's literary agency with his wife Lucy in Oxford, England. He sometimes writes books about a child-version of himself called Joe - in picture books What Happened to You? and You're So Amazing!. He filled some of the time between being Joe's age and the age he is now, by being an amputee footballer and itinerant busker, two professions where it actively helps to have one leg.
Lucy Catchpole is the author of Mama Car and co-author of You're So Amazing! She's a full-time wheelchair user and has written about disability for the Guardian and the BBC, and more often on her Instagram @thecatchpoles, where she and James also post about children's books and family life with their two daughters.
Jen Campbell is an award-winning poet, and the bestselling author of fourteen books for adults and children, spanning fiction, nonfiction, poetry and picture books. Her titles include the Franklin and Luna series, The Sister Who Ate Her Brothers and The Beginning Of The World In The Middle Of The Night. Her books have been translated into more than twenty languages. She is also an editor and a disability advocate, and she reviews books online, in print and on the radio. You can find her talking about reading, the history of fairy tales, and disability over on her YouTube channel, where she has a following of over 70,000. www.jen-campbell.co.uk.
Sophie Kamlish is an illustrator, animator and 3-time Paralympic athlete based in Bath, England.
She graduated from Kingston University in 2019 with a degree in Illustration and Animation.
Sophie has been obsessed with drawing from the start. She always has a pen on her - no napkin is safe. And given she despised every subject at school except Art, it came as no surprise to anyone that this is where she ended up.
She's illustrated for the BBC, and animated for both Channel 4 and The Royal Opera House. And in 2019, her final year animation was nominated for the London International Animation Festival - in which she discusses the pros and cons of life as an amputee.
Becoming an elite athlete was perhaps a little less predictable.
Competing for Great Britain in the 100m aged just 16 was certainly a shock - even to Sophie herself, as she'd never considered herself particularly sporty. But it's been a huge part of her life for over a decade.
Life as an athlete has taken her all over the world - her pencil case firmly packed alongside her prosthetic running blade.

Descripción de la tienda
**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
