Items related to That's My Hope
That's My Hope is designed to foster understanding and communication among children and adults about disabilities, trauma, illness -- and hope. Twelve children and 16 adults contributed artwork and shared real-life vignettes, including: the service and sacrifice of war, surviving Hurricane Katrina, juvenile diabetes, amputation, cancer, stroke, polio, homelessness, premature birth, and more. The real-life vignettes blend with the fictional story of a young girl and her father who suffers a traumatic injury and becomes an amputee. Father and daughter share a love of bike riding before his injury -- and again afterwards when adaptive bike riding is introduced. That's My Hope is suitable for ages 6-to-12 years.
