A girl has trouble with her school that wasn't very accessible for her wheelchair. Soon joins an activist group and speaks on the issue to try and change things in for them and make schools more accessible. One thing she did was climbcrawl up steps during a protest instead of using her wheelchair. This book would be a good one for Intermediate Readers. This book is about a girl in a wheelchair that fought for greater accessibility for herself and others in building requirements. It is encouraging and growing in perspective for the many obstacles that she faces daily. This would be a great book to bring perspective within a classroom. It could also be an encouragement to all students as they becone greater aware at the ways that their individual voices and persistence can make big differences in our world. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

"Diagnosed with cerebral palsy at birth, Jennifer Keelan grew up battling-and overcoming-the limitations others set for her. From a lack of cutaway curbs and bus lifts to being denied enrollment at her neighborhood school, Jennifer was continually blocked from living the life she wanted. But after discovering the world of disability rights activism, she knew she had to use her voice to change things. When Jennifer was just eight years old, she participated in the Capitol Crawl. The deeply affecting image of Jennifer crawling up the steps of Capitol Hill went viral and helped pressure Congress into passing the Americans with Disabilities Act. A powerfully illustrated biography of Jennifer's life and a celebration of youth activism, All the Way to the Top will teach all children that they have the power to make a difference"-- Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
