Inspiration

When I was directing a program for children with disabilities, I needed a book for the parents so I wrote my first book, Raising a Handicapped Child. It still sells after 22 years and is now in a revised and expanded form published by Oxford University Press. I love the book world and greatly enjoy writing. I have several other books completed and ready for publication.
