I'm Not Scary

The purpose of this book is to educate young and old minds on how to approach and befriend children with special needs. The author was inspired to write this picture book after witnessing many awkward stares and comments from children while out with her granddaughter, Lakelyn, who was born with CHARGE syndrome. Her hope is this book will encourage readers to acquire empathy and treat a special needs child like any other child. You will see that they are actually more alike than they are different!
