Recenzijos

'This book is there to help us all, to encourage us to talk about how were all different [ ...]  'Its a really, really lovely book, beautifully illustrated as well.'  -- Ben Shepard & Ranvir Singh * 'Good Morning Britain' ITV * 'A richly illustrated compendium of activists, artists, thinkers and athletes with disabilities [ ..] Burnell's dreamy yet fiery tone infuses each biography with a sense of its subject's refusal to be held back by the expectations of others.' -- The Guardian 'An international and diverse selection of biographies profiling over 30 disabled artists, thinkers, athletes and activists.' -- Fiona Noble * The Bookseller, July Previews * 'I Am Not a Label is intelligent and politically bold at the same time as being beautiful to browse every bookshelf needs a copy.  -- Disability Arts Online 'An eye-opening, stylish and empowering collection of biographies profiling over 30 disabled creators, thinkers, activists and athletes.' -- LoveReading 4 Schools 'Be assured, this is [ not] a book that simply says you can be a hero despite being disabled. Crucially, this is a book that also recognises that you do not have to be a hero. [ ...] Fascinating, funny, informative, this is a much-needed anthology that breaks stereotypes and challenges assumptions.' -- BookTrust 'Exploring disability and difference through the biographies of these remarkable people makes children truly see that nothing is impossible if you try hard enough. Featuring a clear index, glossary and further reading section, this book has a place on every bookshelf.' -- Reading Zone Cerrie's text deftly sidesteps the sort of triumph-over-adversity clichés weve come to expect in narratives about disability, and Lauren [ Emel] Baldos artwork is uncompromisingly stylish too. -- James Catchpole * Caboodle *
