One of the most inspiring stories of the past year was that of Brooke Ellison. The victim of an automobile accident that left her paralyzed from the neck down when she was eleven years old, Brooke never let her disability stop her from living her life to the fullest and becoming the first quadriplegic to graduate from Harvard University. But, as she eloquently reveals in this beautifully moving account of her life and accomplishments, her identity extends far beyond her physical limitations.

Written with her mother, Jean, her closest companion -- in alternating chapters -- Brooke's story starts on the day that changed her life, which left her in a coma and nearly killed her. It concludes with the promise that Brooke's life is just beginning, and that it will indeed be a remarkable one. Told with grace, warmth, and sparkling humor, this unforgettable memoir is filled with optimism, inspiration, and confidence that the future will bring even more blessings. Miracles Happen is not just about living with a disability, it is about overcoming adversity and celebrating the miracles that every day brings. It is not just about one person, but about the heroics of a family. And it is not just about one extraordinary mother-daughter relationship, but about the special bond that exists between mothers and daughters everywhere.
