A fictional story for children about how three boys with disabilities, taunted by their peers, find the magical power to cure their disorders. This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is the single most powerful publication or source of information that has been presented to my son who was recently diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome. He identified completely with "Adam" and his difficulties. His conclusion from reading this book was that if "Adam" can deal with and overcome many of the obstacles that present with this disorder, then he can too. A very deep heartfelt *THANK YOU* to Adam Beuhrens and his mother for writing this book.
Awesome Book!

I read this book to my 8 year old son. He loved it - I loved it! We couldn't put it down - read it all in one day. It seemed to make him more at ease with his Tourettes and helped him see there are worse things. I highly recommend this book to anyone affected by a child with Tourettes.

My 11 year old son loved this book. In fact, when asked to do a book report for school on a fantasy book, he picked this. I think that he could really empathize with the characters. Having TS he knew exactly how those children felt. He laughed through the whole book and I remember how it made my heart lighten to hear that hearty laugh. I'm sure there are quite a few bullies that he would like to turn into frogs, also. I hope this author decides to write another book......I know one person who would be sure to scoop it up!!!

A delightful adventure book about 3 boys. One has cerebral palsy and the other two have Tourette syndrome. They find a magic marble with magic powers and accidentally it becomes aimed at the bullies. I recommend this book to any child who has a disorder that makes them feel different from their peers.
Fun to read, good message, at last, heroes with handicaps!

The boys in our class thought the story was great - the girls thought the frogs were gross but still liked the story. And they all thought the belching was funny! The only negative comment was that there wasn't more books to read about the characters to learn more of their adventures. Write another one of these funny books!
