Pure Grit by Lily Collison
"A must-read"-Julie Dussliere, Chief of Paralympic Sport, U.S. Olympic & Paralympic CommitteeNineteen people from across the globe, ranging in age from twenty to seventy-plus, tell their stories of living and thriving in diverse fields - in sport, the arts, medicine, business and more. With refreshing frankness, they share their successes along with their struggles - grit is the one characteristic they all have in common. These are not stories of people overcoming disability - they're stories of people accommodating disability while pursuing their dreams.
