Description: 

About a sister and her brother with Down syndrome who competes in a Special Olympics track meet (not sure if this is fiction or non-fiction?).

Quotations: 
A woman placed the medal around Danny’s neck. Mom and Dad took pictures, and Bob and Pat patted him on the back. When Sheila bent down to hug her little brother, Danny took off his medal and put it around her neck. “Here, Sheila,” he said. “This is for you.” “But why, Danny?” she asked. “Because you’re my best friend,” he said. “And because you’re special.”
