Erica's workshop paired with her custom books helped give meaning to our mission in guiding our students and their families to embrace and befriend those with diverse needs and abilities. My Heart Books is an incredible resource for those school leaders and families looking to break down the walls that divide us and limit our communities from full inclusion."-Melissa B., Director of LearningThe customization of these beautiful books allows for each child's story to be told in a way that truly represents how beautifully unique each child is, along with providing the foundation for dialogue about disability and inclusion with siblings, relatives, and classrooms."-Dr. Amy L, Special Educator
