Share a Smile to Spread The Happiness
"Jacob's smile, the one thing that took so many months to develop,
was a turning point for me. I didn't realize it at the time, but in hindsight,
that one moment allowed me to stop looking at Jacob with sadness."
- Marcy White
Jacob Trossman's mother
"Jacob's smile reflects the giant, happy, goofy, playful child that he is. |
"One of the main reasons I wrote The Boy Who Can was to show people that Jacob is more than a boy in a wheelchair. He should be defined by all of the things that he is like his sense of humour, his intelligence, his laughter, his smile, before defined by the wheelchair." |
Jacob is often defined by his disabilities as opposed to the abilities" |
"There's always that one thing that will make you smile. No matter what. Everyone smiles for different reasons, and various things make certain people smile more than others. However, one thing that will never fail to make me smile is Jacob. It's something about that smile, you're drawn to the endless love Jacob has to give, that's shown through a single smile."
