The ledge / Lesley Choyce.
"In this high-interest novel for teen readers, 16-year-old Nick tries to adjust to his new reality after a surfing accident leaves him paralyzed."-- Provided by publisher.
Nick was used to being good at everything. Hockey, football, track, they all came easy to him. Surfing was his latest passion. That is, until the accident. Now partially paralyzed, Nick is angry, depressed and getting far too fond of his prescription meds. But his frequent visits to his physiotherapist, a Syrian refugee, and a budding friendship with a partial amputee who has also experienced firsthand the horrors of war help him start to piece his life back together. A story about overcoming the odds and changing your life for the better.
