Yumi and Monster - Hardcover
by Kam Redlawsk (Author)
Little Yumi loves to run, jump, and play. But all this changes when a mysterious monster quietly appears, just as Yumi's body begins to feel slow and weak. Afraid and unsure, Yumi does her best to avoid Monster. It takes an unforgettable journey through the snowy woods for Yumi to understand what Monster wants...and for Yumi to learn to embrace a new kind of life.
Yumi and Monster is inspired by disability advocate, artist, writer, and Asian American adoptee Kam Redlawsk's own experience living with a rare degenerative muscle-wasting disease that has been gradually making her immobile. With stunning original art, this modern fairy tale will inspire everyone who has faced illness, loss, or any life situation that seems insurmountable. Come take a journey into the emotions we feel when faced with unexpected challenges--and discover the beauty magic, and adventure that lie beyond fear, in ourselves.Author Biography
