Midget
Tim Bowler
Paperback
(Oxford University Press, Jan. 7, 1999)
Midget doesn't have much going for him. He's fifteen years old, three foot tall, and puny as anything. He's trapped in a useless twitching body he can't control, tortured by Seb, his cruel elder brother, and can only communicate in grunts and gestures. But Midget knows one thing-sailing. Hedreams of sailing his own boat, and showing Seb a thing or two. Everyone says it will take a miracle, but that's when Midget starts to realize that even miracles are possible. It's just that sometimes they hurt people who get in the way...Interest age: 11+.
