I got this audiobook via a promo code and this is my voluntary review.
A fantastic book that demonstrates that being disabled need not prevent you from dreaming! I always try to include diversity in the stories I share with my neices and nephews to make them productive socially conscious grown ups someday. I would suggest using this book as a teaching tool to assist young children grasp the idea that those who are physically challenged share the same emotions and capacities as those who are physically able. I paired it with the ebook, Good images and language that is simple to read. The kids all had a lovely afternoon drawing alternately abled disney princesses in pretty dresses. My nephew felt much better about his new hearing aids after we read this story.
Barbara Rich did a brilliant job narrating.
