Book Description
In a dwindling forest, deep and old, by the banks of a river, dark and gold, there live three friends: a boa named Ana Conda, a sloth named Slow Jim, and a toucan named Bill, just Bill. THUS BEGINS A tale of generosity and tropical lunacy by Carmen Agra Deedy which will captivate readers young and old, all the way to its outrageous conclusion. Set in the equatorial rainforest, TreeMan is the story of three South American friends who meet the most revered resident of the North Pole (thanks to a bungling pilot) and, through that meeting, are introduced to a world outside their own threatened habitat. The result is an unforgettably funny Christmas story in which nothing turns out as expected and not everyone is who he seems to be. TreeMan reminds us of how much the heart and spirit matter. And that good intentions sometimes pave the way to... paradise.

Book Description
In this ground-breaking book, Jenny Slater uses the lens of ’the reasonable’ to explore how normative understandings of youth, dis/ability and the intersecting identities of gender and sexuality impact upon the lives of young dis/abled people. Although youth and disability have separately been thought within socio-cultural frameworks, rarely have sociological studies of ’youth’ and ’disability’ been brought together. By taking an interdisciplinary, critical disability studies approach to explore the socio-cultural concepts of ’youth’ and ’disability’ alongside one-another, Slater convincingly demonstrates that ’youth’ and ’disability’ have been conceptualised within medical/psychological frameworks for too long. With chapters focusing on access and youth culture, independence, autonomy and disabled people’s movements, and the body, gender and sexuality, this volume’s intersectional and transdisciplinary engagement with social theory offers a significant contribution to existing theoretical and empirical literature and knowledges around disability and youth. Indeed, through highlighting the ableism of adulthood and the falsity of conceptualising youth as a time of becoming-independent-adult, the need to shift approaches to research around dis/abled youth is one of the main themes of the book. This book therefore is a provocation to rethink what is implicit about ’youth’ and ’disability’. Moreover, through such an endeavour, this book sits as a challenge to Mr Reasonable.
