My friend Katelyn Herrygers searched for books that would be helpful for her young son who has Down Syndrome. She wanted something that celebrated his uniqueness—physically, emotionally, and socially. When she was unable to find what she was looking for, she decided to write one herself.

Katelyn’s book was published October 2019, by EABooks Publishing. The rhyming text engages the reader, and the illustrations feature diversity in the characters. I AM ME: Just as Life Is Meant to Be is a book to remind readers that finding our place in the world can be hard. But no matter where we are from, what we know or don’t know, or how we see the world, we have one thing in common: We’re here, we’re super, and we’re already who we are meant to be.

I recommend this book for families who have special needs children, but also for any family that wants to celebrate life.

I am happy to give this book 5 smiles!
