I love being me, because me is an awesome thing to be! Emma has limb differences, but different isn’t bad, sad, or strange. It’s just different! But when some accessibility problems get in the way at the local art museum, it ruins the fun of a class trip…and then Emma’s friend Charley makes things even worse! In the middle of a really bad day, Emma has to call upon her sense of inner awesome to stand up for herself and teach everyone a lesson about the transformative power of feeling awesome in your own skin.
What do young people with disability say about this book?
"Awesomely Emma makes a great introduction to ideas of the social model of disability, wherein disability is a natural part of human diversity, and the “problem” is an inaccessible society."
