194F: 1960’s book about accepting disabilities (Solved)

Looking for a Children’s novel. I probably read it around 1963 or beyond. It was a library book. It was about a young girl helping her friend (possibly named Sarah?) who had a disability (possibly Cerebral Palsy?). I remember the girl helping the disabled girl/Sarah and helped her in school and at play and to generally feel accepted by others.

    Could this be Jean Little’s ‘Mine for Keeps’? The heroine is a girl called Sarah, usually Sal for short, who has cerebral palsy; and her friend Libby helps her when she leaves her special boarding school to go to a mainstream school.
