Owning It

Our disabled childhoods in our own words
Come on a journey through childhood with the very best writers in the disabled community.

COME ON A JOURNEY THROUGH CHILDHOOD with this anthology of twenty-two autobiographical stories from the very best writers in the disabled community.

'Honest, hopeful, hilarious and heartwarming.' Cerrie Burnell

From birthday parties, to navigating the sports field, to being given random free stuff, to juggling hospital visits alongside social lives .

These twenty-two true stories capture the highs and lows, the tears and laughter, the friendships and fallouts of growing up with a disability.

Whether you're disabled yourself, or know someone who is, or want to better understand the experience, this book is a window into the young lives of these disabled writers: their stories, in their own words.
