About the Book
Tyler Katarsky was a kid who ran in circles, a kid who struggled to sit still—until one day, he found something that would change his life forever: juggling.
From a summer camper bursting with energy to the face of the Juggling Life charity, Tyler became a different kind of hero. He taught children with cancer how to juggle, performed circus stunts on stages big and small, and captured hearts everywhere with his kindness, courage, and unshakable spirit. A one-man show. A friend to all. An inspiration.
Told through the eyes of his teacher and mentor, Louis De Lauro, January Fever: The Tyler Katarsky Story is filled with energy, laughter, and love. It’s about friendship, purpose, and the magic of living life full throttle. There are moments that’ll make you smile, some that will make you cry—but at its core, this is a joyful ride with a young man who made every second count.
