あらすじ・解説
Adapted for young audiences from his adult memoir, Just Don't Fall is the the hilarious true story about Josh Sundquist's battle with childhood cancer and how he worked his way to making the United States paralympic ski team.
The inspiration for the Apple TV show Best Foot Forward!
When he was ten years old Josh Sundquist had his leg amputated to treat bone cancer. But this is not a sad story; on the contrary, this memoir is a story of resilience, heart, and most importantly: humor.
Young Josh had a lot of adapting to do after he lost his leg. He had to learn how to walk again. He had to accept that he wouldn't be able to try out for the travel soccer team. He knew his life would never be the same again. But when he sees a poster in the hospital elevator advertising skiing classes, he realized all might not be lost.
Equal parts heartbreaking and hilarious, Just Don't Fall is Josh's story of surviving cancer with 50/50 odds, learning to be a professional skiier, and making his way to being a bestselling writer and motivational speaker. Inspirational and moving, Josh's story is one that can be appreciated by listeners of all ages.

"I didn't want to put this book down. It was more than the amazing story—it was the honesty of a voice that spoke, without a whiff of melodrama, about loss and worry and determination."—Elizabeth Strout, author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Olive Kitteridge
