Fifteen-year-old Gordy McCann’s life is transformed in an instant when a hunting accident leaves him paralyzed. Overnight, his dreams, friendships, and sense of self are rewritten. As he learns to navigate life in a wheelchair, Gordy discovers unexpected strength—while his father wrestles with a guilt so heavy it threatens to destroy their family.
Set in the heartland of 1950s America, Wheel Man is a luminous novel about resilience in the face of unthinkable change, the bonds that break and mend us, and the healing power of acceptance. Perfect for readers of Wheels for Walking, Such a Pretty Girl, and Speak to Me!, and for anyone drawn to intimate, character-driven stories of courage and connection. Wheel Man reminds us that sometimes moving forward doesn’t require standing up, only standing strong.
