Product Description
Cerebral palsy prevents 14-year-old Shawn McDaniel from having any muscle control whatsoever, so he sits in his wheelchair all day long and thinks. He does have a talent, however--he remembers everything he hears. If only he could find a way to let people know that there is a person inside his immobile shell--that he's not a brain dead vegetable--before it's too late. Shawn is convinced that his father wants to kill him ... and in a way, he understands. A man fearful of his son's seizures and inability to communicate, Sydney E. McDaniel can't help thinking he should end Shawn's suffering and the misery of the family. Raising a son with cerebral palsy has given Terry Trueman the personal experience needed to write this insightful novel. Ingeniously written in first-person, Trueman gives the character the ability to express his thoughts and feelings.
