A young adult story of adapting to life with MS

After returning from a globe-trotting adventure, Charlene faces symptoms that lead to medical tests and an MS diagnosis. The story traces her movement through denial, fear, acceptance, and treatment, while her friends and dog Boots remain sources of support. Wheels and a paintbrush with hidden magic also figure in Charlene’s efforts to meet life-changing challenges. The book brings a young adult character’s experience of illness into a story about adjustment, friendship, and self-acceptance.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in stories about illness and adapting to change
  • Readers seeking a young adult story featuring friendship and a supportive pet

Book overview

Charlene Stiletto has recently returned home from her globe-trotting adventure. While Charlene was out strutting in her fabulous shoes and accompanied by her dog, Boots (her loyal and comedic companion), Charlene started to experience disruption in communication between her brain and the rest of her body. Charlene's whimsical world has been shattered. She journeys through frightening symptoms, numerous medical tests, denial, fear, acceptance, and treatment of the autoimmune disease MS-multiple sclerosis. Charlene discovers the power of bravery, spirit, and acceptance through the therapeutic power of wheels, the love from Charlene's friends, the encouragement from her pup Boots, and the benefits of magic hidden within a paintbrush. Charlene Stiletto realizes she is, in fact, still fabulous, regardless of the life-changing challenges before her.
