A photo of our family, celebrating "You're So Amazing!" receiving a Schneider Family Book Award Honor from the ALA. Text reads: “Our book about disability and NOT being amazing is a Schneider Family Book Award Honor book! We’re in our garden, trees and greenery behind. James and Lucy - a white disabled couple - and their two young daughters wear clothes that vaguely suggest a pirate theme, with hats and bandanas. We’re all sitting, with Lucy in her wheelchair - holding a book our picture book "You're SO Amazing!". Viola - age 6 - has an open-mouthed expression of great joy / surprise - who can tell? Book cover: “You're So Amazing” - the US hardback, a children's picture book with a cream background. On the illustrated cover are three children between 4 and 6yo - an East Asian boy, a white one-legged boy with yellow crutches, and a Black girl. They have a football and look happy.
