Joe is a little boy. A little boy who is tired of being considered amazing. He’s just a normal kid. He’s no more amazing than his best friend. But he constantly gets told how amazing he is. What Joe is is a one-legged student. Joe is different but being different is normal. Being different is not amazing. Save amazing for when things are amazing. The message in this book is fantastic. The message is treat me like everybody else. Treat me as normal. I am as normal as can be. I just do things differently. Make disabilities normal not amazing or not something to fawn over. This book is excellent and so are the illustrations.
