In the early twentieth century, a mysterious and frightening disease spread through the world's population of children: polio. This illness stumped doctors, but nurse Elizabeth Kenny trusted her instincts and developed a way to help countless young patients formerly threatened by paralysis or even death. This compelling story follows Kenny's journey from humble beginnings as a "bush nurse" in Australia's backcountry to becoming the leading world expert in treating polio. Young reads will be inspired by her relentless compassion and determination to do the right thing, even when she stood alone.
