But along the way, Josh also faces a brand-new set of challenges, including how to get an entire school of kids to see past his prosthetic leg and get to know him for who he is. With the support of his parents and the help of his best friends Kyle and Gabriella, Josh learns, laughs, and grows, eager to come back every day for more.
