ABLE Gold Medals, Grand Slams and Smashing Glass Ceilings

by | Read by Dylan Alcott

Biography & Memoir • 8.25 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2018

The Australian author, who narrates his own work, details his life as a competitor in wheelchair basketball and tennis, his music-festival-hopping lifestyle, world travels, and so much more. He makes it clear that using a wheelchair will not stop him from what he wants to do and accomplish. With a gravelly voice, Alcott narrates his story, which is inspiring without being preachy. His cadence is a bit off on occasion, a bit unpolished, but overall this is an enjoyable listen and one that answers questions about disabilities. Alcott's tone, like his outlook, remains positive throughout this entertaining audiobook. M.B. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2022]
