      abstract = {Josh Sundquist was an energetic and inquisitive  nine-year-old when he was diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma, a  virulent cancer that eventually claimed his left leg. His  extraordinary journey takes him from his small southern  town--with his father, an aspiring pastor questioning his  faith, and his mother, a rigidly conservative homeschool  teacher--through a dizzying array of hospitals, on to high  school, and then to the mountains, where Josh learns to  ski. On the slopes, Josh's world bursts wide open and he  finds within him the drive to become a champion skier,  despite his disability. While he navigates the dramas of  high school and an unstable home life, Josh keeps his eyes  on the prize--the 2006 Paralympics in Turin, Italy. Just  Don't Fall isn't just the story of a boy becoming a man,  but of a champion realizing his greatest  aspiration.--Publisher description.},
