this book is about a boy named Emmanuel who was born with only one functioning leg. He has a passion for riding bikes, and learns to overcome his setbacks and inspires many by riding for long distances. This book would be a good one in a classroom to talk about different disabilities and also to inspire students to accomplish things they think are impossible

This is a fun way to narrate the day of a baby raccoon. Lively illustrations.

This book is a true story of Emmanuel Yeboah, who is a boy born with only one functioning leg. He learns to ride a bike with one leg and is able to provide for his family through that. I would recommend this book to first-third graders. This age group would fit best because they can appreciate the content best and understand the story with the minimalist art.
