Product Description
Patrick and Anne Simpson first captured the interest and admiration of people everywhere with their book Wheelchair Around the World, in which the couple shared the excitement and challenges they encountered while fulfilling a dream to travel around the globe despite Anne's confinement to a wheelchair. Their inspiring energy and determination will touch readers again in their latest book, Wheelchair Down Under, which chronicles their journey across New Zealand and Australia. From the beauty of the Australian coast to the rustic expansiveness of the Outback, the Land Down Under comes alive for armchair and wheelchair travelers alike in the Simpsons' second book book. Join the couple as they spend a day in the life of an Aborigine tribe, travel to the underground town of Coober Pedy, and get up close and personal with a few cuddly koalas. Throughout their tales, the Simpsons constantly provide tips and insight into the dos and don'ts of traveling as a physically challenged individual. In sharing their experiences, the Simpsons not only guide us across the Australian countryside, they also motivate us to seek out our own dreams.
