  • My Name Is Special

    Jean R. Watson

    Paperback (AuthorHouse, March 16, 2018)
    In todays society, there are many children with disabilities and illnesses. Sometimes society has a tendency to overlook the hidden talent in these individuals. They are special in a positive way, because they are the children of God. The most amazing thing about individuals with any form of disability is that they are stronger in other areas. For instance, a man without physical sight may have the capability to play a musical instrument, yet some people with sight cannot play at all. Ask yourself, How does this happen? I believe that within each person lies a light of hope, spirituality, and determination. If you are confident, regardless of your circumstance, you can accomplish anything. After all, God is only concerned about your heart, not your physical appearance. In addition, he loves all of his children. Be confident in who you are, and know that you are a wonderful individual in spite of physical or mental limitations.

    Josh put his finger on the word and tried to sound it out.“D-d-d-d …”By the time he got to the bottom of the page, a headachehad started to pound behind his left ear. He snappedthe book shut and shoved it across the table.“I hate reading.”Eleven-year-old Josh’s summer is getting off to a bad start. It’s the first week of vacation, but instead of being out on the water in his nifty sailing dinghy, he’s stuck in the library with the latest in a long string of tutors. Josh is dyslexic—and since he moved out west to live with Dad, a whole new crop of kids have been teasing him about his problems writing and reading.At least Josh loves living at the marina on Dad’s cruising yacht. He’s counting the days until his brother, Matt, still back in Toronto with their mom, comes out to join Josh and his dad for a sailing trip.When a mean classmate, Brittany, bets Josh he can’t beat her in an upcoming boat race, Josh isn’t too worried. With Matt as his racing partner, he’ll stand a good chance. But when the news comes that Matt has to enroll in summer school instead, Josh’s anxiety goes into overdrive. If he loses the race to Brittany, he’ll have to volunteer as a reader at the library—his worst nightmare! It’s time for Josh to prove what he’s made of, and readers will cheer him on as help comes from unexpected quarters.Combining sailing lore, page-turning adventure and gentle humour, first-time novelist Jenny Watson has crafted an engaging, encouraging tale. Josh’s story comes full of inspiration, not just for the learning disabled, but for anyone who has to overcome adversity.
