About The Book
Kanya Sesser was born without legs, but that doesn't mean she has limits!
Sometimes I still fall.
But I never give up.
I make things work for me.
Because I'm strong.
Because I'm free.
Because I have NO limits.
Kanya Sesser has spent her life sharing the message that no matter what life deals you, you can do anything. In this picture book based on her childhood, she tells the story of how she first learned to stand up for herself, both on a skateboard and in life. When people grab her wheelchair, to push her to class or onto the bus after school, she's too shocked and too sad to say no. The people around her don't understand that she moves herself. But when she rides a skateboard for the first time, she experiences a new sense of freedom and joy, and she finally finds her voice.
This empowering picture book will teach kids that if they put their mind to something, they can achieve it.

About The Illustrator
Lenny Wen is a children's book author and illustrator born and raised in Indonesia. Since she was a kid, she loved nothing more than telling stories with her drawings and filling out papers--including her school textbooks--with doodles.
She has illustrated books such as Linda Sue Park's Smiling Eyes and Megan McDonald's Fairy Door Diaries series. She also wrote and illustrated her own books, such as Spicy Spicy Hot! and Wolfgang in the Meadow.
When she's not drawing or writing, you can find her staring at trees, watching true crime documentaries, doodling bears, or walking in the woods with her familiar. She currently lives in the countryside of Austria.
