Alfie Dormand, 8, began writing his book 'The Monkey That Stole A Bus' during lockdown after being inspired by a day out at Paignton Zoo.
He even illustrated the book himself using a computer program to create colourful drawings to accompany his imaginative tale.
Through sales of his storybook on Amazon and donation via his Just Giving page, Alfie has raised over £1000 towards the costs of the new electric £3000 wheelchair - which would give him greater independence than his current manual wheelchair.
