Andrea Kurth, an educator from Michigan, realized her students with disabilities weren't often represented in books and wanted to change that. Inspired by her students, she published Zac's Mighty Wheels, a fun chapter book series where the story is the focus, not the disability. It is filled with adventure for younger children but exciting enough for the older struggling reader. In her latest picture book, It's Your Turn, she co-authored with her mother to write a story of her brother, which keeps her mission alive while fulfilling her mother's dream. Andrea believes everyone should be represented in books. Visit her at www.kurthbooks.com to connect. Linda Mischley is a mother of three children-the youngest has 5P/Cri-Du-Chat Syndrome-and grandmother of three. She has held this story in her heart for over 20 years waiting for the day to show it to the world. She is ready to inspire the next family by showing that no matter the ability, we can all celebrate each other.
