"Freiling Publishing made it happen!"
Children with unique abilities deserve to be understood and accepted! I feel extremely blessed to have this opportunity to share Frankie’s story, and I hope and pray it’s a blessing to others too. Empathy is hard to teach. But my heart’s desire is that through this book children will better understand how to accept and celebrate children like Frankie.

"Do you know what grit means? Well, my mom says I have it. Having grit means you keep working toward your goal even when it’s hard. Someone who has grit is fearless and unstoppable."
