Perfect As You Are

Teaching Kids about Disabilities

August 15, 2019

Looking for the perfect book to add to your children’s library? 

Did you know!? Almost 15% of the population age 5 and older, have some type of a disability? 

Perfect As You Are is a heartwarming story that introduces children to the topic of disabilities and begins the conversation about how we are all made different yet perfect in God’s image. It teaches kids about acceptance, empathy, inclusion and compassion for children with Blindness, Down Syndrome, Spina Bifida, Deafness, Muscular Dystrophy, and Autism.


The best part is.. the characters in the book are ALL REAL KIDS!! There is also a sweet little surprise at the end of the book! In addition to each character being real, each one is highlighted 2 times a year where a portion of the book proceeds go towards a charity of their choice.
