"A big-hearted story that's as sweet as it is awesome." -R.J.
Palacio, author of Wonder "An honest, emotionally rich take on
disability, family, and growing up." -Kirkus Reviews (starred
review) In the tradition of Wonder and Out of My Mind, this
big-hearted middle grade debut tells the story of an irrepressible
girl with cerebral palsy whose life takes an unexpected turn when
she moves to a new town. Ellie's a girl who tells it like it is.
That surprises some people, who see a kid in a wheelchair and think
she's going to be all sunshine and cuddles. The thing is, Ellie has
big dreams: She might be eating Stouffer's for dinner, but one day
she's going to be a professional baker. If she's not writing fan
letters to her favorite celebrity chefs, she's practicing recipes
on her well-meaning, if overworked, mother. But when Ellie and her
mom move so they can help take care of her ailing grandpa, Ellie
has to start all over again in a new town at a new school. Except
she's not just the new kid-she's the new kid in the wheelchair who
lives in the trailer park on the wrong side of town. It all feels
like one challenge too many, until Ellie starts to make her
first-ever friends. Now she just has to convince her mom that this
town might just be the best thing that ever happened to them!
