Insignificant Events in the Life of a Cactus, Volume 1 by Dusti Bowling

3.0

If you are looking for a book with the same feel as Wonder then this would be a good choice. Aven is a very able middle-schooler who was born without arms. At the beginning of the book she moves with her adoptive family to Arizona where the family will run a wild west theme park. The move means that Aven will have to attend a new school, make new friends, endure the stares and curiosity as she uses her feet to turn pages of a school book or hold a fork or countless other things. This is a feel-good book about disability with cast of lovable characters.
