 by Aaron Philip Genre:  Memoir Aaron Philip is no ordinary kid. He is a 14 year old kid who has cerebral palsy.  He has his own blog and regularly speaks to educators about what it is like to have CP.  His family has given up a lot so that he can live in New York and have access to the best care.  His mom and dad take turns living in New York while the other lived in Antigua.  Aaron's story shows how the power of possibility and determination can take your life to all kinds of places.
