SEE ME FOR WHO I AM: Autism Awareness
The Autism community is amazing, but often an unseen community. A lot of people are not informed about the great things that the Autism community has successfully mastered. Sometimes based on their spectrum, they can master the most difficult things but struggle with the simplest tasks. I’ve created an Autism awareness literacy children’s book for early education, titled, “SEE ME FOR WHO I AM”. I’ve created 26 hand-painted animated characters who in the book share with the readers things they can and have accomplished. ‘SEE ME FOR WHO I AM’, helps enforce Autism awareness, reading, writing, and word definition for all students of early education age.

His mother assures Andy that he can achieve anything he strongly believes in, and she often praises the acting skills that he performs at home. She encourages him to “Soar like an eagle when Andy gets anxious. When Andy repeats this phrase three times, he summons an eagle who builds his confidence throughout this story.

The Women- essentially the untold experiences of the nurses who fought to save our soldiers on Vietnam. The first historical fiction novel written about women over in Vietnam that I've read.
If you've ever had a family member in service, or you lived through the Vietnam War era, or if you wondered about life in the 70's, or you just enjoy a well-written novel reflecting American life, please read this book.
In her latest masterpiece, “The Women,” Kristin Hannah once again proves her prowess in weaving narratives that resonate deeply with the human spirit. Known for her powerful storytelling in acclaimed works like “The Nightingale” and “The Four Winds,” Hannah embarks on an ambitious journey through the tumultuous era of the 1960s, presenting an intimate yet expansive portrait of a nation at the brink of transformation.
I graduated from high school in 1971 and married a Vietnam vet in 1974. This book was for me, too. I didn't give much thought to the war through high school, but a good friend of mine was one of the haters.
“The women had a story to tell, even if the world wasn’t quite yet ready to hear it, and their story began with three simple words. ‘We were there’.”
