  Heumann was only five years old when she was first denied her right to attend school. Paralyzed from polio and raised by her Holocaust-surviving parents in New York City, she had a drive for equality that was instilled early in life. In this young readers' edition of her memoir, she tells her personal story of fighting to belong in a world that wasn't built for all of us. Heumann recounts her lifelong battle to achieve respect, acceptance , and inclusion in society-- Adapted from back cover and information from regular print edition.
