Wheel-Mouse vs All The Crazy Robots
by
Celyn Lawrence (Goodreads Author)
This is a children's picture book. All profits are going to a hospice charity that helps care for terminally ill and life-limited children.
The story comes from my severely disabled daughter, Celyn (aged 8). She used a head-switch and communication device & I did the illustrations.

This is a picture book that author Mark Lawrence's 8-year-old daughter wrote. All profit from the book goes to the Children's Hospice for terminally ill and life-limited children and as Mark says, "a charity that has provided help for Celyn (and me)."
This is a great story and for a great cause as well. This had me cracking up the entire time. Loved it!
Just wait till you find out what robot poo is. :D

I received this book from GoodReads first reads. Really cute! It touch my heart and my funny bone. I really loved this book.
I got a complimentary copy and then promply bought my own for Kindle... Why, you say?
Because packed in this short story there's everything you need to make it great: humor, action, poo, and a great ending.
If that's not enough reason to get this super cute, short picture book, here's another: all profits go to the Children's Hospice charity for lifelimited and terminally ill children.
And here's yet another reason: Celyn is eight years old, and already able to tell a story like this! Don't you...more

My daughter (8) has been reading Wheel-Mouse to her younger brother (5) and they both love it! Robot poo seems to be a favorite as does the speedy Wheel-Mouse herself. Really a lovely story and a playful one that connected well with the kids.
We also had a long chat about cerebral palsy - something that would never have happened without Celyn's story. What cerebral palsy is, what it isn't and the likely impact on life.
"Well, I think that she is an amazing writer and I love her story. She has a n...more

Really cute. I like how not all superheroes come in the conventional type. And really, saving us from poop bombs out of the sky? that is the best kind of superhero.
Love where the proceeds are going and the creative process. Go Celyn!

I had the pleasure last week of telling this lovely young author in person how much I loved her book. She was properly humble, then disappeared in a dazzle of flash photography before I could get her to sign my iPad.
Celyn you little genius! Loved wheel-mouse and the power of zumming. Put the biggest smile on my face and I'll be reaching for it when I need cheered up. Kudos to Mark for taking direction and illustrating this lovely little book.
My 5 year old daughter cracked up! Poo on nearly every page. Surprisingly, my wife even chuckled, albeit with a frown. Who's to judge comedic brilliance? Buy this book now! It's for charity :)
Have you ever wondered what robot poo looks like? Have you ever worried what you might do if crazy robots were pooing everywhere? This is the book for you. And me!
This story is awesome, the drawings are brilliantly done, there's poo everywhere and mention of chickens. What more could you want out of a kiddie book?
This is a wonderful book written by a 8 year old quadraplegic who is non verbal. I loved the book.
My daughter won it from Goodreads.
