Emma and her brother are staying at their grandmother's house for a full week; she has packed her favorite stuffed toy and the recharger for her cochlear implant, but she is a little worried about feeling homesick. With her grandmother keeping her busy, and the help of a new deaf friend named Nick, the week flies by.
For teens
Unbroken is a much-needed short story collection featuring disabled teens as heroes of their own stories. The anthology successfully subverts stereotypes and long-held literary tropes about characters with disabilities … A wide range of genres ensures a bit of something for almost any reader. -Rummanah Aasi, Voya Reviews

For adults
From the disability rights advocate and creator of the #DisabledAndCute viral campaign, a thoughtful, inspiring, and charming collection of essays exploring what it means to be black and disabled in a mostly able-bodied white America.
