Seletah Parker and the Wheelchair Detectives Arthur Muhammad

Seletah Parker sits in her wheelchair in the upstairs window until the sun goes down. Seletah is 12 years old. She has developed a disease that confines her to a wheel chair. Seletah wishes that one day she will be able to get up from her chair and run with the other children. One morning Seletah was watching the game of tag. She wanted to join in, but she knew if she went among the other children the game will change to accommodate her. Seletah had an idea to write stories that will allow her and a few of her hospital friends the ability to walk, run and solve unsolvable mysteries in her world of make believe. In this world they become children Detectives. Seletah called her detective agency' Seletah Parker and the wheelchair detectives.
