The Short Bus A Journey Beyond Normal

You can learn a lot from this book and their storiesA recipient of the Truman Fellowship for graduate study in creative writing and disability studies, he is also the co-author of Learning Outside the LinesFollowed by The Hole in the Door and Steel Boxes, Crushed Cars.The Sound of One Hand Clapping is about a friend of his from college who showed him that the environment you are in determines whether you are a success or a failureIf you have ever felt like you didn't belong, you will be able to relate to this bookDisability is inherently a negation.By the end of the journey I wasn't left with just a string of stories and individuals along Mooney's road mapHe's very concerned with how society views thingsIf she goes to school in order to gain job skills, as a declared Down's Syndrome student she won't be allowed to take college-level classes because, she's told, she couldn't possibly benefit from them given her disability

View Product [ x ] close Collision with Trees and Crash Short of Runway, This report explains the accident involving Corporate Airlines flight 5966, a BAE Systems BAE-J3201, N875JX, Mooney is dyslexic, and struggled with academics during his childhoodHis experiences are quite similar to mine - a "hopeless case" who "defies the odds" and ends up going to a great college and doing work that seems in direct conflict with his disabilityMooney's insistence on caring and seeing individuals as individuals are at the core of the values I hope educators, society and I try to followIt is not until almost halfway into the book that the story takes on life when Mooney visits a deaf blind girl (this chapter is magicical)The author makes a fairly convincing argument that the medical model for the kinds of people he interviews is flawed, that there is nothing wrong with them, that they do not need to be fixed 8c982d30e9
