Description

Shane Burcaw's life offers a refreshingly honest glimpse into living with a disability. He tackles many everyday questions that come with his rare disease, spinal muscular atrophy, and shows readers he's just as approachable and funny as anyone else. Born with this condition, Shane's body hasn't grown bigger and stronger like others have - instead, it's gotten smaller and weaker over time. This means he relies on friends and family for help with everyday tasks, but it doesn't stop him from enjoying life with the people he loves. This book provides a humorous and relatable look at what it's like to live with a disability, making Shane Burcaw an approachable and endearing voice in the conversation.
