Squeaky Wheels: Travels with my Daughter by Train, Plane, Metro, Tuk-tuk and Wheelchair is a mother-daughter travel memoir woven with comparative culture and accessibility awareness. Kamata's adventures with her teen—who happens to be deaf, with cerebral palsy, and in a wheelchair—through subterranean Tennessee, to the islands of Japan, and to the top of the Eiffel Tower ultimately lead to a daughter's increasing independence, a mother letting go of expectations, and advocacy for travel which prohibits discrimination.

Suzanne Kamata is an American, but she has lived in Japan for over half of her life. During that time, she has modeled for a textbook cover, done the voiceover for a TV commercial, and planted trees with the Emperor. She has also written many books and won many awards. Besides reading and writing, she loves chocolate, cats, and figure skating.

Sanya Simmons is an Atlanta-based Black Latina female audiobook narrator. She's a member of SAG-AFTRA, PANA, and APA, and she serves on the DEI Committee of APA. Sanya's alto voice is warm, grounded, friendly, credible, and authentic. Conversational first person POV is Sanya's forte. She enjoys romance (including erotica), cozy mystery, memoir, true crime and crime fiction, thriller, and YA genres. Nonfiction topics that are sure to catch her interest are those involving African American history and current issues, social justice, inclusivity (especially Black, LGBTQIA+, and disability), mental health, and spirituality. Sanya is also a musician and the author of A Single Mom's Guide to Raising Black (Gentle) Men.
