I have a request from a counselor as follows:

"I am particularly interested in books about people who have overcome
handicaps. I'm currently working with a young man who has some pretty severe
medical diagnoses and is very depressed and hopeless about his situation.  I
think he's ripe for bibliotherapy, but I have only found one book that
addresses what I'd like him to look at.  That book is Still Me, by
Christopher Reeve.  The problem is that his reading level is probably not up
to this book, even though he's in high school. Thanks very much for any help
you can give me."

Does anyone out there have recommended titles that could be of help?

Thanks!
