When Malena Lindberg’s little brother, Max, was diagnosed with cerebral palsy at an early age, it made her sad, but the now ten-year-old saw it as a learning opportunity for everyone.
For most of Max’s life, Malena has been an advocate and ambassador for him and others with special needs, speaking at libraries and day camps about her brother’s condition.
Now the fourth-grader has written a book to help increase awareness about her brother’s disability and to spread a message of kindness and inclusion.
