A story for my brother

I made this story because my brother was very sad when he had to wear casts and braces on his feet. Alastair stopped crying when he listened to my story. It took a long time to make the whole story up. My mom and dad helped me with some of the words to put in.

Listen to the story called "Straight and strong legs in the mountains":

Straight-and-strong-legs

Editor's note: Alastair was born with club feet and was cast at one week old. He has worn casts or braces nearly every week since birth. In the old days, a child with club feet would have grown up crippled. The condition is now fully treatable. Fortunately, Alastair's case is associated with no other disorders.

Lovely story. My little boy Alexander was born with clubfeet, he is now almost 7 years old and he can run, jump, hop, play soccer and is just like any other little boy. Your little brother Alistair will be the same as our little Alexander.

Warm wishes from South Africa
