The heartfelt and funny memoir of a boy who built himself a prosthetic
arm out of the world-famous toy bricks.
David Aguilar was born missing part of one arm, a small detail that
seemed to define his life and limit people's ideas of who he was and who
he could be. But in this funny and heartfelt memoir, David proves that
he can throw out the rulebook and people's expectations and maybe even
make a difference in the world--and all with a sense of humor. At only
nine years old, David built his first prosthesis from LEGO bricks, and
since then he hasn't stopped creating and thinking about how his
inventions, born from a passion for building things, could fuel change
and help others.
With a voice full of humor and heart, David tells his powerful story, of
family and friendship, of heartbreak and loss, and ultimately of triumph
and success, as he continues to dream big and build a life and a better
world--piece by piece.
