“What makes this journey so inspiring is Mooney’s transcendent humor; the self he has develop into does not turn away from old pain but can laugh at it, make fun of it, make it into something beautiful.”―Los Angeles Times

Labeled “dyslexic and profoundly learning disabled,” Jonathan Mooney was once a short-bus rider―a derogatory term used for kids in special education. To be told how others had moved beyond labels, he bought his own short bus and set out cross-country, on the lookout for kids who had dreamed up magical, beautiful how you can overcome the obstacles that separated them from the so-referred to as normal world.
The Short Bus is his irreverent and poignant record of that odyssey, meeting thirteen people in thirteen states who taught Mooney that there is no such thing as normal―and that to actually live, each and every person will have to find their own special way of keeping on. The Short Bus is a unique gem, propelled by Mooney’s heart, humor, and outrageous rebellions.
