Ellen Raskin Quote

Can you stand on your legs? Sydelle Pulaski asked. Can you walk at all?People never asked Chris those questions; they whispered them to his parents behind his back. N-n-no. Why?What better disguise for a thief or a murderer than a wheelchair, the perfect alibi.Chris enjoyed being taken for the criminal type. Now they really were friends.
