This is an excellent book for teaching kids about disability! Author James Catchpole has the same disability as the main character, Joe. Joe's playing pirates by himself when a kid he's never met asks him the dreaded question, "What happened to you?" He's heard this a hundred times before, and he's really not in the mood, especially when other kids start a ridiculous guessing game. Finally, they abandon their efforts and begin to join in Joe's pirate adventure, learning that it's okay not to know some things. Alongside this wonderful story for kids, there's a teaching guide for parents in the back. A must-read!
