Insignificant Events in the Life of a Cactus

Dusti Bowling wrote this novel about Aven Green, a girl who was born without arms. At age 13, not having arms hasn’t stopped Aven from doing almost anything. Then, her parents get to take over the management of Stagecoach Pass, a Western theme park in Arizona. Aven has to leave everything behind and start again. She is determined to make her new life a success, even at this new place where she’s only seen as ‘the girl with no arms’.
