Inspirational wirh illustrations that serve the uplifting story. Author's note fleshes out the details. Reading through YMA winners now, and this one was a beautiful starting point.
Emmanuel Ofosu Yeboah was born with just one strong leg, but, despite the restrictions and prejudices against disabled people of his time and place, he was able to attend school and travel a four hundred miles on a bicycle speaking up for his message that disability doesn't mean inability.
