As a child, Jennifer Keelan-Chaffins set aside her wheelchair and climbed the steps of the United States Capitol on her knees. Her actions sent a message: Pass the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Lawmakers listened. Today, the ADA makes public spaces accessible to people with disabilities. All the Way to the Top is her story.

“Jennifer had the power to inspire and to change the world,” author Annette Bay Pimentel (pictured) told TFK. Kids today do too.
