Publisher's Summary

He is 10 years old and confined to a wheelchair. But that's not his identity. To the world he is India's youngest patent holder for inventing variants of chess for six, 12 and 60 players.

Have you heard of the army major who was declared dead in the Kargilwar but is India's first blade runner today?

Do you think a woman without hands can be one of India's leading painters?

What is the first thought that comes to your mind when you see a differently abled person? Pity? Sympathy?

The real-life success stories of 15 differently abled people charted in Because Life Is a Gift will make you think otherwise. You will sense pride replacing all feelings of pity and sympathy, for they have fought against all odds to achieve their dreams. This book is a tribute to their courage, passion and zest for life. They will challenge your notion of the impossible. They will inspire you to live life to the fullest, because life is truly a gift.
