i absolutely loved this book. i enjoy graphic novels but often have a hard time with the storylines as they seem scattered often. this author is incredible in how she has adapted her story over time and it's now a dance theatre production too. the majority of the book is really heartbreaking and really puts you in a place where you feel you need to understand how frightening her accident must have been but also so very inspiring in that she creates a world of her own. I was fascinated by all the assistive technology in the book as well and it made me want to do more research afterwards. If you're thinking about reading this book, if not for the art, the storyline and message are phenomenal too. the art is fantastic and in the back it talks about how she was able to coordinate with an illustrator and actually be able to see her pieces.
