Publisher's Summary:
Mari can't do anything! She is so depressed and feeling so sorry for herself after her tragic accident. All she wants to do is sit by the window in her wheelchair and watch the other children playing outside. Her favorite saying is, "I can't do anything". All of this changes when she meets an amazing and special little duck who teaches her a very important lesson. What is it that makes this duck so amazing and special, and what lesson can Mari possibly learn from a silly little duck?
Marion Bantle was the mother of our pastor, a dear friend, and our adopted grandmother. She passed away in 2013 from complications after having her left leg removed. After she died, several of her family members went on a weekend getaway to a cabin by a lake. They were out on the dock talking and laughing about the wonderful memories with Grandma Bantle when all of a sudden a duck flew onto the dock. To their amazement, this little duck was missing its left leg just like Grandma Bantle.
This was written to inspire and build up anyone of any age needing a little inspiration and encouragement.

Handicapped Doesn't Mean Helpless
This was a GoodReads First Read, and I received a copy to review. That said, this was a cute story about dealing with disabilities and keeping a positive outlook. Mari loses her leg in a terrible accident, and her family struggles with making her find herself after.
A visit to a lake house soon shows Mari that she's not the only one struggling with disabilities, and that a disability does not mean that she cannot do anything, as she believes.
