As a parent, our job is to love and protect our children. When they are faced with a challenge, our first instinct is to help them figure out how to overcome it. Some challenges require a great deal of creativity and perseverance. Even then, they are not necessarily “overcome” but they can become manageable.

This series of books was created by a group of moms who had to figure out a path for our children that would lead to independence and success. Each book is a compilation of daily events that describes the challenges of a special needs

student as they successfully navigate those challenges in an inclusive classroom.

By sharing our stories, we hope to encourage acceptance, support inclusion and, most of all, promote empathy!
