I’M JUST HEIDI:
Living to the full with Down’s Syndrome
By Heidi & James Carter with
Steve & Liz Crowter
Day One. 192 pages. £8
ISBN 978 1 846 257 254

Heidi Carter née Crowter is a disability-rights campaigner. She also has Down’s Syndrome and loves Jesus. This book tells her story.

It is really two books in one. The first half is by Heidi’s parents (first published as Surprise Package in 2003 and updated in 2008). They movingly describe the shock of having a baby with Down’s Syndrome and how God and their church helped them through.
