On the Bright Side is a dive into disability in different stages and what life looks like in a world that caters to the able-bodied. We loved Sortino’s ability to provide realistic disability representation.

The cover for On the Bright Side by Anna Sortino. On a dark blue/purple backdrop, a girl (with red hair, a brown cochlear implant processor, wearing a blue long sleeve top and jeans) holds hands with a guy (brown hair, jacket over hoodie, dark pants, holding onto a cane). Behind them are dozens of glowing lights of various shapes and sizes, mostly pink, yellow, and blue. The tagline off to the side reads, "when life takes a turn, follow your heart."
