Oshie by Jon Blake (author) (UK edition)

Oshie is an engaging, funny, enthusiastic and often rebellious boy. It just so happens that he has cerebral palsy. Four funny and charming stories follow Oshie’s adventures and difficulties, from starting at a new school to being shunned for his inability to play football – until he saves the day on the pitch! Before long, Oshie wins the admiration and hearts of his classmates, making the most of talents which compensate for, or even arise from, his disability. This warm and witty look at Oshie’s day-to-day life will delight young children, while educating them about what it’s like to be different.
