Tell a story Tuesday :We have come this far by faith

   Last week was  my  sisters   b day so I did not post  but  this  time  I  will   talk  about a great  book that i have  read recently  We have come this far by  faith 




This  is   the  true  story  of , Dr Darrel  Pone ,a  African American  doctor  with Cerebral Palsy.   He  grew  up  during the civil  rights  movement  and with the love  of his family  he  became  a  rehabilitation  doctor.  My  mom   recently  met  him at  a conference  so I  got this great    book  with a signature  from  Dr Pone    as well.  How cool is that 


Do  you  have a  book that tells  a  story  about  the disabled   experience

Tell a story Tuesday

 I am  going to try  and start  something     blog  world  and  i need your  help. I am going to  try and   recommend  books on the disability  experience.   If you  have any   good  books  in this  category  leave a comment  and who  knows   your  recommendation may lead to  a  post on that book   now  for my  first book  Accidents of  Nature.

 Accidents of  Nature   is  such a great   book  it  is about   a  teenager  with  CP who  goes  to a camp  for    all  kinds of  kids   with disabilities.  Set in  the  summer  of 1970  it     talks  about    stereotypes that    the disabled community  has to  face.  The  characters  are   well  written and  their are a lot  of things to think about  after  you  put the  book  down.      This  is  by  far  one of the  best books on disabilities  I have ever  read
