Synopsis
The first book, Timothy Turtle, was born when I had my surgery. I was literally "a turtle on my back." I would lie in my hospital bed and notice something that needed to be done, but because I was a "turtle on my back", I could not even water my flowers. Like Timothy, I eventually recovered, but not completely. Timothy, with the help of his friend, Tobias, learned that he could still do some things, like swimming in the lake, but he could not do everything. Timothy had to find joy by doing what he could and by being with his friends. The book also includes a kind deed by a child, who gets Timothy off his back and on the road to recovery. The young boy in the wheelchair also learns that he can enjoy the races even if he can't run.
