      A wonderfully witty and fiercely passionate memoir on living with a disability, and how we can redefine what it means to be disabled. ________________________________'Jackson's frank, fearless and sometimes hilarious book deserves to be read as widely as possible.' Daily Express'I am blown away . . . Beautifully written, funny and such an important call to action.' Venetia La Manna'I loved, loved, loved this book. A profound, heartfelt and eye-opening look into the way people with disabilities are treated, with the power of championing change and inclusion for all.' Charli Howard____________________________________________In this heartfelt, thought-provoking and often hilarious book, Lottie Jackson reflects on her experiences of living with disability: from the pitfalls of going shopping on a mobility scooter, and the headache of defining oneself on a tick-box form, to a slapstick scuffle with the so-called 'easy-pull' tights aid, and the intense pleasure of finally swapping a hospital gown for a slinky dress. Lottie captivatingly expresses the raw vulnerabilities, injustices and untold joys of disability, as well as the bizarre everyday occurrences that able-bodied people usually don't experience. Lottie powerfully explores the ways in which we undervalue and underrepresent disabled people in our society, and demonstrates how negative stigmas about 'abnormal' bodies seep into all aspects our lives. In this dazzling debut, Lottie reveals why we must strive for change and redefine what it means to be disabled in every facet of life.
