Cribbin Unplugged ...More Adventures with Cerebral Palsy

Inhaltsangabe

Observations and perceptions are at the forefront of this fourth book by Tom Cribbin entitled, 'Cribbin Unplugged'. His noticeable speech impairment caused by cerebral palsy is the underlying theme as he markets his books in a rather unconventional way --- by going door-to-door. Tom's remarkable sense of self and humour are evident as readers live the adventures with him.

Mr. Cribbin's observations of people, with whom he meets at the door, are often priceless. From the doubting individual in the story 'Shut Up, Dear' to being upstaged by a girl in 'Little Amanda', Tom Cribbin's quick sense of wit is warm and engaging. Likewise, when confronted with an unfriendly person during his adventures, Tom always uses tactful decorum to ease the tension as he demonstrated in the story 'Rachel's Rudeness'.

In Tom's unique style of storytelling, readers will experience a range of emotions from laughter to wonderment as he describes some indelible mements of his youth.

Throughout this book, Tom shows inspiration to us by his incredible determination punctuated with wit.
