Accidents of Nature
by Harriet McBryde Johnson
jean is 17 years old she has cerbal palsy. she has always gone to normal school but now she is attend a camp for person with disabilties. there she meets Sara a girl who is also in a wheel chair sara's radical views change Jean' s mind on how she thinks of herself and how other with disabilties are treated. i really enjoyed the book. The way the camp staff treat the teens in the camp was so aggrivating for example how the were flirting and touching the kids at the dance ans when the game at the fair were rigged so everyone could win. as A person with Nld i was able to indefiy very much with the book. i have one question there is a chracter in book who has eplipsy she said that eplietics could not get married was this actully true at one time. the book was set in 1970 btw.

I thought it was a good book and a sad one too to see how much bad stuff happend to Dana and Allie after the change. some have said the found the ending unbelevable but i sas it coming.
