Description: Born in Ghana, West Africa, with one deformed leg, Emmanuel was dismissed by most people, but not by his mother, who taught him to reach for his dreams.

As a boy, Emmanuel hopped to school more than two miles each way, learned to play soccer, left home at age thirteen to provide for his family, and, eventually, became a cyclist. He rode an astonishing four hundred miles across Ghana in 2001, spreading his powerful message: disability is not inability.

Today, Emmanuel continues to work on behalf of the disabled. An inspiring book for young readers.
