You'Re So Amazing! Av James Catchpole, Lucy Catchpole

<p><b>Winner of the Inclusive Books for Children Picture Book Award 2024, shortlisted for the UKLA Book Awards and the LITTLE REBELS Book Award.</b><br><br>A funny, whip-smart, friendly picture book that asks readers to imagine how othering it would feel if strangers believed they had to compensate for a person’s disability with every interaction.<br><br>When people meet Joe, they often treat him as Amazing Joe or Poor Joe. But can''t he just be . . . Joe?<br><br>One-legged Joe is ''amazing''. He knows this because wherever he goes people always tell him he’s amazing. Amazing for sliding down the slide, for kicking a ball . . . even walking to get an ice cream, or even just eating an ice cream. Of course, being Amazing Joe is better than being Poor Joe . . .<br><br><b>''This book should be in every library.''</b> <i>School Librarian Journal</i><br><b>''challenges the idea of disability as automatically “inspirational”.'' </b><i>The Guardian</i><br><b>''funny, warm and informative.''</b> <i>The Bookseller</i><br><b>''A crucial contribution to literature for pre- and primary-schoolers.''</b> <i>Disability Arts Online</i></p>
