Catherine's Story

Catherine's Story is a beautifully illustrated and simply told story about a girl with an unspecified disability who relies on others to help her do many ordinary things, but who offers them much love and happiness in return. Catherine can't talk or walk like her cousin Frances, but she listens closely, walks in her special shoes, and claps quietly. Her family appreciates her uniqueness, making them feel special too. Inspired by the author's experience with her young niece, the book features a heartfelt foreword by best-selling author Jacqueline Wilson and evocative illustrations by a highly experienced artist.
