Telling the inspiring human story behind the creation of the Paralympics, this young readers biography artfully combines archival photos, full-color illustrations, and a riveting narrative to honor the life of Ludwig Guttmann, whose work profoundly changed so many lives.

Dedicating his life to helping patients labeled "incurables," Ludwig Guttmann fought for the rights of paraplegics to live a full life. The young doctor believed--and eventually proved--that physical movement is key to healing, a discovery that led him to create the first Paralympic Games.

Told with moving text and lively illustrations, and featuring the life stories of athletes from the Paralympic Games Ludwig helped create, this story of the man who saved lives through sports will inspire readers of all backgrounds.

The cream is not greasy and doesn't smell.
Firts time I've used the beef tallow cream, it's very moist and lightweight. I like it.

BEST TALLOW IVE EVER BOUGHT!
First, the scent isn’t over whelming which I like, & it doesn’t leave a greasy feel to my skin after applying. My skin feels amazing, & looks much healthier in addition which I like. I will be ordering more when it comes available again. GREAT FOR WINTER!

Not a big fan
Oily and doesn’t absorb well. The scent was very overpowered with honey.

Amazing product
I have just purchased my 7th jar! I absolutely love this product...and its American made! It leaves my skin soft, radiant and glowing! I didn't tell anyone about using it and people started asking me what I was doing differently. I get complements about my youthful glow! This company makes an amazing product and I hope that it will always be available! I have friends and family members hooked on it now. My mom just dropped a stocking stuffer hint to me tonight for another jar!
