This empowering and up-lifting picture book by Ellie Goldstein, a
contestant on BBC Strictly Come Dancing, will inspire young children
to be free to become whoever they are. Ellie is a powerful story about
determination to overcome challenges despite the assumptions of
others. "I know I can do a lot!" When Ellie Goldstein was born with
Down's Syndrome, doctors claimed she could do nothing. Today, she's a
supermodel, gracing the covers of Vogue and Glamour, dancing and
speaking up for others. This is the story of her 'can do' attitude and
determination from the day of her birth to life as an internationally
famous fashion model. Her story encourages children to know that they
are each special and to overcome the challenges of life's set backs
and frustrations and be seen. Told she would never walk, Ellie has
danced in productions for the Royal Opera House. Told she would never
learn; she's gained a college education. And told she would never
talk; Ellie uses her voice as a disabled model to speak up for other
people with Down's Syndrome, and to transform the face of fashion.
Everyone is different but no matter who you are, you are free to be
whoever you were made to be.
