Book Description

The Adventures of Ryan & Brian is a marvelous true story of Ryan Boatner. Ryan is a double handicapped boy who finds adventure in everything he and his father do together. As Ryan tells his story you will begin see the world from his perspective, the world of only feeling, smelling, and hearing. The world, as Ryan experiences it daily, is just a blur. Ryan depends almost exclusively on how his dad or someone else describes his surroundings to him. The world Ryan knows is far different than a regular sighted person, and his having to be in a wheelchair with cerebral palsy makes things even more difficult. Everyday activities that Ryan does take more time and effort. But with the help of his dad, Ryan learns to adapt, overcome, and conquer some of the more difficult tasks to make his world fit him. Ryan’s father teaches him that there are “No Limits. You can do anything you want to if you want to do it bad enough.” This manuscript is wonderful. It really gives a fantastic insight into a world that most of us take for granted. Seeing the world from Ryan’s perspective is a real eye-opener; it makes the reader stop and just take a look around at all the things we usually miss. All in all, absolutely wonderful stuff, and I am so glad I had the privilege to work on it. Mark Hooper at Angel Editing
