Mighty Mike Bounces Back : A Boy's Life with Epilepsy (9781433810435)

Mighty Mike didn't know how mighty he was...until the day his dad brought home a basketball.

Mike has epilepsy and sometimes it's hard to feel like a "real" kid. He is scared of letting other people know about his disease--or even worse, being seen having a seizure! He is often worried and afraid of what other people will think. Soon Mike starts playing basketball at his school, and he learns to overcome his worries and to be courageous in the face of obstacles including his epilepsy. Written by a real-life basketball star with epilepsy, Mighty Mike Bounces Back is a fun, empowering story written to help kids learn to live comfortably with their epilepsy and to take control of their life.

Included is an extensive, kid-friendly resource section with information on handling seizures, feeling different, and living with worry that may come with epilepsy.
