COMMUNITY REVIEWS
really great book about thinking inclusively submitted by robinfowler on June 19, 2018, 9:16pm I really liked almost everything about this book. It's about a boy who's blind-- and who doesn't want others' help. His classmates are frustrated by his kickball performance, and they try to help in ways he doesn't want, then realize they can help with sound in ways that let him play too.
