A Coming-of-Age Story of Faith, Friendship, and Finding Your Voice
Twelve-year-old Talitha Plath knows three things for sure:
Her cerebral palsy doesn't define her.
Middle school might actually be harder than physical therapy.
God's plans are way more complicated than they seem.
When Talitha starts at a new school, she faces bullies, first crushes, and the exhausting reality of being the only kid in a wheelchair. Armed with her pastor dad's unwavering faith, her little brother's terrible jokes, and her own fiery spirit, she's determined to prove she belongs—on her own terms.
Through heartfelt letters to God, Talitha navigates friendship dramas, accessibility battles, and the big questions of why faith doesn't always make life easier. With the help of her loyal best friend Miranda and basketball-obsessed crush Codi, Talitha discovers that true strength isn't about walking—it's about rolling forward with courage, even when the path isn't smooth.
