Book announcement! Lucy and James - a white disabled couple - sit in their kitchen holding a large postcard with the title ‘Owning It: Tales From Our Disabled Childhoods’. Text reads ‘Announcement!’ on cream torn paper. It’s a cosy room with teacups and crockery on shelves. James is wearing a linen shirt and the new brown waistcoat, Lucy is wearing a dark brown cardigan and matching beret - we’re both smiling. We’re holding books by some of the contributors.
