Author Information

Dale Bradley's journey began when he was born prematurely, weighing only 2 pounds. His fragile body lacked necessary oxygen, resulting in brain damage and Cerebral Palsy (CP). The effects of CP vary depending on the severity of the damage. While some individuals may experience issues with one side of the body, speech, or balance, Dale's condition primarily affects his legs and balance.Individuals with CP are often not mentally delayed but may feel ""trapped"" in a body that does not function as it should. Dale has frequently observed parents scolding their children for staring instead of addressing their natural curiosity.Dale's book aims to educate both adults and children. When a child encounters someone who appears different, parents should not discourage staring; instead, they should encourage the child to ask questions. However, parents should teach that teasing or bullying others who may look different is unacceptable. People with disabilities may use crutches, wheelchairs, or braces, but they're just like everyone else.
