Always Climb

James, Katie, and Sarah love to visit their Aunt Em and Uncle Mike's house and play in the old apple tree. Up in the tree a little bird watches from his nest and hopes to join in fun and games one day, but has a broken wing. The book tells a story of playing together to have fun and shows that ability comes in all forms. Written from the childhood memories of two sisters growing up alongside an older brother with cerebral palsy, it is a whimsical and fun tale.

A children's fiction picture book telling a story of disability, overcoming obstacles, working together, playing together and the love and support of family.
