Download or read book Coney Island s Wonder Wheel Park written by Charles Denson and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2020 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The venerable Wonder Wheel, Coney Island's oldest and greatest attraction, has dominated the Coney Island skyline for more than a century. Towering over an ephemeral amusement zone long plagued by fires, floods, and ill-conceived urban renewal schemes, the magnificent steel machine has proved to be the ultimate survivor. The ride boasts impressive statistics. A combination of roller coaster and Ferris wheel, the 150-foot-tall structure weighs 200 tons, has 16 swinging cars and 8 stationary cars, and can carry 144 riders. More than 40 million passengers have taken a ride on the wheel since it was built in 1920, and during that time, it has maintained a perfect safety record. The ride is also a monument to immigrant initiative. Charles Hermann, the ride's designer, was Romanian; the original owner, Herman Garms, was German; and Denos Vourderis, who purchased and lovingly restored the aging landmark in 1983, was Greek. An official New York City landmark, the Wonder Wheel is now owned and operated by three generations of the Vourderis family as the centerpiece of their Deno's Wonder Wheel Park. The enduring saga of this iconic ride, and the family that saved it, provide a captivating chapter of Coney Island's history.

Book excerpt: There are some things in life that are undeniable. The grass is green. The sky is blue. Bunnies hop, wolves howl—and C. J. is in a wheelchair. For a boy of just eight, this might seem like something sad. In fact, the opposite is true, thanks to C. J.’s best friend and wise older sister, Gabby, who helps him believe being in a wheelchair doesn’t stop anything. Gabby insists C. J. spend time outside. She says he needs the fresh air, but a simple walk becomes something else altogether when imagination gets involved. The brother and sister roll so fast that they end up in space. There they see many strange sights and—with the help of C. J.’s wheelchair—even get to play heroes. Although most kids have working legs, all children can relate to the feeling of being powerless. Over the course of this adventure, C. J. grows from a boy who thinks he can’t do anything to a boy with confidence and joy. Things may not change in reality, but C. J. learns there are so many things that can be changed with a little imagination and love.
