Klappentext
The Scooter Twins are back! And this time, Melanie rallies the Wheelie Friends to band together to make their brand-new local bakery accessible.
The day that Bevington's Bakery opens just down the street, Melanie and Melvin are first in line! But there's one big problem - a small step in the doorway means that their mobility scooters can't get in. When Mr. Bevington claims he can't afford a ramp, Melanie decides his answer isn't good enough. She wants to choose her own cookies. She deserves to come and go like anyone else.
Melanie reaches out to other kids who use mobility devices - the Wheelie Friends! All summer long, they sit outside the bakery, working together to raise funds for a ramp. Will they get the respect they deserve? And will they finally get their cookies?
This follow-up to The Scooter Twins is written by disability advocate and mobility scooter user Dorothy Ellen Palmer and illustrated by Maria Sweeney. Melanie and the Wheelie Friends Save the Day emphasizes the importance of self-advocacy, and offers many kids who use mobility devices the opportunity to find themselves in the pages of a book.
