<p><b><i>"Libraries looking to add to their inclusive nonfiction offerings will find this one a winner.<b>" KIRKUS review<i><p>
<p>In <b><i>Claire Wants a Boxing Nam<b><i>e a mother and daughter share their weekly boxing lesson. Taught by a woman who is differently sight-abled and has a guide dog, an amazing story unfolds. Dynamic photography captures the energy and intensity of the physical activities all three women complete at the inclusive Toronto Girls Boxing Club.<p>
<p>Boxing moves, bags, and gloves abound as the story reveals Claire's desire to be given a boxing name. It will represent what she has learned from boxing. She knows that her mom and other women have really cool boxing names like Slice 'n Dice and Eraser. <p>
<p>Claire was born with a facial difference and through boxing has gained a new strength she hopes will shine through her new name. This story challenges the reader's perception of what a person with blindness is capable of doing and also provides an incentive to challenge oneself to discover personal strengths.<p>
<p><i>By sharing Claire's story, we celebrate Vivian's many strengths and abilities. Vivian is differently sight-abled and has a guide dog.<i><p>
