Me and Lesley Feldman, two proud new authors!
Life chugs along, and if we are doing it right, we keep gaining experience and offerings.  From one day to the next, we don’t necessarily know how those skills will be shared in the world, but the point of the learning is to share it where it’s needed.


A few months ago, I awoke to an email from one of my dear friends in Manitoba who had connected with a lady close to her.  That lady, Lesley Feldman, had shared some of her life story with my friend, and in sharing, my friend knew that there was a story to be told.  She connected the two of us, and with what I’d learned, was able to help get things rolling for what Lesley hoped for herself.


Shortly after we began to work on the story in her heart, she asked about publishing a children’s book that she’d had sitting on her shelf.  Lesley, like myself and so many people that I know, had been bullied incessantly as a child.  In talking about our shared experience, I remembered the turmoil and the pain that bullying had caused me in my young life.  As part of her healing journey, she had written a book that would have children think about the fact that we all do certain things differently, but the bottom line for each and every one of us, is that we want to be accepted for who we are, just like every other person.
I am Just Like You is a beautiful teaching tool to have young children start to explore differences in a positive, educational way.  To recognize that we are unique and different, but our needs are the same.  Our need to be loved, valued and appreciated for who we are and what we offer to the world just as we are.


I’ve loved the conversations that I am Just Like You has started in my own family.  It’s ideal for children in the 3 to 5 years of age range, to start conversations.


In the world as it’s continuing to spin, I think we have to use every tool at our disposal to do what we can to develop and mentor the next generation, so that they are more accepting and compassionate that so much of what we’re witnessing around us is revealing.  I think this book is a great starting place for that, and I hope you’ll find it to be the same!


With Love,

Share
