Seventeen-year-old Jean has cerebral palsy and gets around in a wheelchair, but sheâ s always believed sheâ s just the same as everyone else. She goes to normal school and has normal friends. Sheâ s never really known another disabled person before she arrives at Camp Courage. But there Jean meets Sara, who welcomes her to â Crip Campâ and nicknames her Spazzo. Sara has radical theories about how people fit into society. Sheâ s full of rage and revolution against pitying insults and the lack of respect for people with disabilities.
As Jean joins a community unlike any she has ever imagined, she comes to question her old beliefs and look at the world in a new light. The camp session is only ten days long, but that may be all it takes to change a life forever.
