Emma is a determined young girl who loves school, her friends, and being part of her community. But living with cerebral palsy means that some everyday activities can require extra effort. Walking may be harder. Physical activities can take more time. A task that seems simple to someone else may be a very big accomplishment for Emma. And some days are simply hard. On one of those difficult days, Emma feels frustrated and discouraged. She wants to say, I can't do it. But she is surrounded by people who believe in her-family, friends, teachers, therapists, and members of her community who remind her that she doesn't have to accomplish everything all at once. She only needs to take the next step. With encouragement, patience, determination, and a little help along the way, Emma discovers that challenges become more manageable when she focuses on what she can do.
