Explore the captivating life story of JT Mestdagh, a young adult who has triumphed over countless adversities—from hundreds of surgeries as a results of his VACTERL syndrome diagnosis, to the lifelong challenge of learning to read with severe dyslexia—to live a life of adventure and inspiration….in a new edition written just for a YA reader.

Truth be told: JT shouldn’t have survived his first days of life, but he overcame the odds and has become a determined, positive-minded adult who has climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro, competed in Rocky mountain biking competitions, raced through the Grand Canyon, founded his own charitable organization that teaches kids to read, and regularly raises money for families who need medical supplies and resources.

In this book, young readers will learn:
  • How to share their own story
  • How to pray for others
  • How to be an authentic friend
  • How to create memories they’ll cherish for a lifetime
  • How to reject false labels the world has placed on them
  • How to find their own “wolf pack”
  • How to leave a legacy
  • And more
