Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Let Them Fly is a must read especially for anyone caring for, working with or who have children who have disabilities in their lives. It is the story of the lives of one mother and her twins and how they coped. It is not meant to portray us as heroes or super people. What I did for my twins was provide an environment that allowed them to be the best they could be. The girls don't understand why anyone would want to read about them as they are nothing special, just everyday people. What they don't understand is that is exactly what the book is meant to show. They are just "regular" people.However, this book does show how when provided with the right environment and attitude that children with disabilities can succeed and live everyday lives. It is meant to help people not to pity or judge people with disabilities. I encourage all parents and people working with all children to read my story and understand that able or disabled, children become what we expect them to become. I never expected any less of my children because they had a disability. Having a child with a disability is hard but given the right attitude they will grow up and become active members of society
