TJ and his Wheelable Chair is a delightful story about a paraplegic and mute boy TJ. Although he cannot walk and talk, he does not allow his shortcomings to dictate his social life. TJ loves to listen to other people around him and enjoys his playtimes with his lovely friends. The author invites children to learn the essential lesson of life, don’t let incapacities or deficiencies of any kind dictate their life and affect them. The book stimulates children to be more sympathetic towards those less fortunate among us.
