My name is Judy Ellen Jensen, and I am the author of I'm an Overcomer. My book will demonstrate how you can be a role model at any age. Being kind and helpful to those with special needs is one of the first steps. An inspiring children's book for ages 5-12 about my life in an electric wheelchair.
After getting the polio virus at age 2, my life would be changed forever. I would learn to live in a new world, unable to walk. Some find it hard to understand how to treat people with disabilities, especially children. But once they learn how strong and determined I am and how much their help is appreciated, they soon see how I have found joy in my life and can do the same for others despite any challenges I face. This book also helps children to understand that faith plays a crucial role in never feeling alone and overcoming life's challenges.
