Follow Nathan and Emma as they navigate a difficult day in our latest release in the series My Sister Emma. It is Nathan's soccer tournament, and he is bursting with excitement However, the schedule for the weekend is all messed up which makes him and his sister Emma feel uncomfortable. Watch as they use coping skills, tools and strategies to make it through this difficult day.

My Sister Emma is a project very close to my heart. I have worked with the disability community for many years and every sensory difference/ability detailed in this book reflects my experiences within the community. The story follows two siblings who take a trip to their neighborhood park. The siblings, Nathan and Emma, are twins. Emma has autism and spells on a board to communicate. My hopes for this book are to educate and raise awareness about presuming intelligence in those with disabilities, specifically autism, inspire inclusion at a young age, and, perhaps most importantly, give children with autism, especially those who point/spell to communicate, a character to relate to. Hopefully, this children's book will educate the next generation and truly impact the mainstream social perspective on those with disabilities/different abilities.
