Not So Different: What You Really Want to Ask About Having a Disability

$19.99

A picture book answering the questions children ask Shane about his wheelchair and spinal muscular atrophy with humor and empathy.

Shane Burcaw was born with a rare disease called spinal muscular atrophy, which hinders his muscles’ growth. As a result, his body hasn’t grown bigger and stronger as he’s gotten older—it’s gotten smaller and weaker instead. This hasn’t stopped him from doing the things he enjoys (like eating pizza and playing sports and video games) with the people he loves, but it does mean that he routinely relies on his friends and family for help with everything from brushing his teeth to rolling over in bed.

This humorous, relatable, and refreshingly honest glimpse into Shane’s life tackles many of the mundane and quirky questions that he’s often asked, and shows readers that he’s just as approachable, friendly, and funny as anyone else.

Generation WE was created for school-age children, to bring knowledge, curiosity and insight into embracing all differences, through the power of books and creative workshops.

We believe that ALL children belong.
