Sometimes our differences are what make us special. A story of ability, empathy, and the power of confidence.


Kamil is a child like any other. He is cheerful, lively, and loves to make stupid jokes. He has also been blind since birth. Growing up with a visual impairment is not always easy, but with the support of his family, Kamil learns to rely on his hearing, spark his imagination, and "see" with his fingers. His outlook on life is rich, ironic, sometimes funny, and sometimes touching. Kamil reminds us that with confidence, creativity, and support, we can all find our own ways to do amazing things.


Key Features:



  • Heartwarming Story: A kind, imaginative child shows that confidence and creativity matter more than limitations.

  • Positive Storytime: Ends on a hopeful note that celebrates family support, friendship, and self-belief.

  • Disability Representation from Lived Experience: Features a blind protagonist and describes everyday life based on the author's own experiences.

  • Encourages Empathy and Understanding: Helps young readers build compassion and awareness of different abilities.

  • Ideal for Shared Reading: A meaningful choice for families, classrooms, and libraries to spark thoughtful discussion.
