My newest adventure in childrens book illustration has lead to the official launch of "Just Like You". Written by Darlene Wierski-Devoe this story teaches that worry, fear and panic are feelings that can be managed while reinforcing the fact that despite the main characters’ differences, she really is “Just LikeYou”. You can order your copy at http://www.talkbreathelive.com/bookstore/ and you can see her very special story (and the book!) as was featured on CBC Toronto News at 6, which aired Monday May 7th 2012.(Story starts at around the 17:40 mark).
