Book description
As a girl, Sheila never let her gradual descent into blindness
prevent her from trying to do everything a sighted person could do.
Then at 17, unable to see to find her way around the house she grew up
in, she found herself dreading her future in an 'ever darkening vacuum'.
But then the remarkable Emma enters her life, and Sheila begins a
journey that brings her the independence, love and happiness she never
dreamed possible.
Emma and I is the moving and inspirational story of the
unique bond between Sheila and her dog, and shows that, sometimes,
miracles do happen.
