Illustrated by Karen George
One-legged Joe is ‘amazing’. He knows this because wherever he goes people always tell him he’s amazing. Amazing for sliding down the slide, for kicking a ball . . . even walking to get an ice cream, or even just eating an ice cream. Of course, being Amazing Joe is better than being Poor Joe . . .
Destined to become an inclusive classic!
A funny, whip-smart, friendly picture book that asks readers to imagine how othering it would feel if strangers believed they had to compensate for a person’s disability with every interaction.
When people meet Joe, they often treat him as Amazing Joe or Poor Joe. But can’t he just be . . . Joe?
