But legend has it that the heir of the true king escaped, and his descendant is waiting until the time is right to reclaim the throne and restore peace to the country. While living in London, Marco learns of a secret his father has been hiding: Stefan knows the identity of the lost prince and that he'll reveal himself soon. But they have to spread the word to the prince's supporters. And to do that, they'll need a messenger who can escape the notice of the current ruler's spies--someone like a young boy. With the help of an orphan he befriends in London, Marco is tasked with traveling across Europe to share the news, preparing the way for the lost prince to return.<br/>Book<br/> ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:5389062 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z Sotomayor, Sonia,<br/>2019.<br/>&quot;A group of children with different abilities and strengths come together to build a community garden&quot;--<br/>Book<br/> ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:5143796 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z Marsh, Sarah Glenn,<br/>[2019]<br/>&quot;The heart-tugging true story of how YouTube star Ninita--a deaf, orphaned pygmy marmoset (the smallest type of monkey)--found family, friendship, and a forever home!

All her life, Annette wanted one thing: to feel free. As a girl she found freedom in the water, where she could swim without the leg braces she needed on land. As she grew up, Annette swam in Australia andEngland and America and beyond, performing synchronized swimming-which she invented!-and competing in swim races and diving exhibitions. But always she was bogged down by her heavy swim clothes. Clothes that only women had to wear, not men. So Annette designed her own swim costume. And then, she fought for the right to wear it-and for the right for all women to feel free&quot;--<br/>Book<br/> ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:2211060 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z Lakin, Patricia,<br/>2002.<br/>1st Aladdin ed.<br/>A true incident in the life of young Helen Keller in which she gets stuck in a storm and her teacher, Annie Sullivan, rescues her.<br/>Book<br/> ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:4967564 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z Lawton, Wendy.<br/>&copy;2002.<br/>Imagines the search for faith experienced by the ten-year-old blind daughter of John Bunyan, author of &quot;Pilgrim's Progess, &quot; during her father's imprisonment for preaching found contrary to the edicts of the Church of England.<br/>Book<br/> ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1301158 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z Draper, Sharon M.<br/>[2010]<br/>1st ed.<br/>&quot;Eleven-year-old Melody has a photographic memory. Her head is like a video camera that is always recording. Always. And there's no delete button. She's the smartest kid in her whole school--but no one knows it. Most people--her teachers and doctors included--don't think she's capable of learning, and up until recently her school days consisted of listening to the same preschool-level alphabet lessons again and again and again. If only she could speak up, if only she could tell people what she thinks and knows ... but she can't, because Melody can't talk. She can't walk. She can't write.&quot; &quot;Being stuck inside her head is making Melody go out of her mind--that is, until she discovers something that will allow her to speak for the first time ever. At last Melody has a voice ... but not everyone around her is ready to hear it.&quot;--Jacket.<br/>Regular print<br/> ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:2741732 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z Hurwitz, Johanna,<br/>[1997]<br/>A biography of the blind and deaf girl who overcame both handicaps with the help of her teacher, Annie Sullivan.<br/>Book<br/> ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:2107690 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z Wilkie, Katharine Elliott,<br/>1986, &copy;1969.<br/>1st Aladdin books ed.<br/>A biography, focusing on the childhood years, of the blind and deaf woman who overcame her handicaps with the help of her teacher, Annie Sullivan.<br/>Regular print<br/> ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:5813504 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z Boxer, Elisa,<br/>[2022]<br/>&quot;As a child with polio in the early 1900s, swimming set Ethelda Bleibtrey free.

But what happens when the apples fall somewhere else -- sometimes a couple of orchards away, sometimes on the other side of the world? In this young adult edition, Andrew Solomon profiles how families accommodate children who have a variety of differences: families of people who are deaf, who are dwarfs, who have Down syndrome, who have autism, who have schizophrenia, who have multiple severe disabilities, who are prodigies, who commit crimes, and more.<br/>Book<br/> ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:5608376 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z 2024-06-03T08:23:29Z Neme, Laurel Abrams,<br/>2020.<br/>First edition.<br/>&quot;When Chhouk, an Asian elephant calf, was found, he was alone, underweight, and had a severe foot injury.
