Re: (...)
Six years ago I developed a communcation book for Maggie to bring back and forth to school for better communication with her teacher and Maggie (at the time Maggie was not very verbal). Anyway, I just received word that my book has been selling well enough that my POD publisher wants permission to submit my book to retailers. If accepted, my book would be in Target, Walmart, Barnes & Noble, etc.!

That is very exciting Laura! It is AMAZING what just a little bit of communication every day can do. I hope you sell thousands and thousands!

This is amazing! Congratulations, Laura! I will be sharing this with my EC teacher, but especially with a friend who teaches EC and has her first Autistic student this year. I hope they fly off the shelves!

Your books are so cool.I worked with autistic children in foster care early in my career and a book like that would have been invaluable. Congratulations, and continued success.
