Welcoming back a book by Hazel Edwards

Cover e Mum on Wheels .jpg

Originally published in 1980, a new generation will be able to enjoy

Mum on Wheels

by Hazel Edwards as it’s now available as an eBook from EbookAlchemy.

Inspired by Hazel's cousin's wheelchair, imaginative problem-solving via ‘good’ ideas remains in this slightly updated version. Issues of diversity and coping successfully with being different are still relevant.

Lee Anne suggests a kind of  ‘Magic’ to her wheelchair- bound Mum to keep her gardening passion, using herbs-on-wheels. And Grandad builds it.

New life for book by Hazel Edwards

Congratulations to Hazel Edwards for updating and re-issuing a long-time favourite with a new title:

Skin Zipped

This eBook began as ‘Skin Zip Me’ in 1984. Fans wanted to share this now out-of-print title to share with their families. This reinvention is now available as a digital and POD book from EbookAlchemy.

Does your skin matter?
Edwina is a see-through 10 year old.
Too much sun and Edwina’s skin peeled off. She visits medical and media worlds, with a see-through body and no skin colour.
Is it a disability, diversity, racial prejudice, or fun?
