Copyrighted in 2012, Me & My Money…a child’s story of<\/span> diabetes<\/em>, took two years to write.<\/p>\n

From birthing thoughts, jotting ideas, typing a manuscript, carrying a daily journal, contacting an illustrator, \u00a0building the manuscript, proofreading and editing again and again and again and…you get the idea…this dream came to fruition.\u00a0 It had do be done.\u00a0 There is nothing like it — as far as my research could go — that reflects, mimics, or encourages diabetic children.\u00a0 This manuscript is now available to the general public in paperback form.\u00a0 Celebrate!!<\/p>\n

Submitting to a marketable world with a targeted audience, networking, promoting, speaking, scheduling, relenting, sacrificing, etc., continues to gain a wide and attentive audience.\u00a0 From what I have been told repeatedly, this is the first book of its kind — reflecting the insights of a juvenile diabetic, a T1, a T1D.<\/p>\n

Briefly, the main character, Kali<\/em>,\u00a0is presently a fourth grader.\u00a0 She was diagnosed with diabetes at the age of two.\u00a0 Her rapid growth\u00a0with\u00a0blooming and wizened independence results from learning how to take care of herself.\u00a0 Wayne, a best friend, knows her very well and together they embark on adventures through Wayne’s hobby, their separate and shared responsibilities, mutual friends, and more.\u00a0 But Kali cannot forget her special pack!\u00a0 She must carry this with her every day, everywhere.\u00a0 What’s in this special pack?\u00a0 You can only imagine!<\/p>\n

Through the wonderful insightfulness of illustrator Amy Pichly-Meyer<\/em> who is responsible for\u00a0the clarity of expression with the cover diesign, along with all 37 colored \u00a0illustrations, this\u00a0book was built for you.\u00a0 I am thankful for her friendshop and abilities.<\/p>\n

My “IT Guy” and husband, Wayne Ross<\/em>,\u00a0mind-boggled through the computer and its typical moodiness — \u00a0with patience —\u00a0to get what was needed, what was distinctly preferred.\u00a0 Amazing work with quality brought me\u00a0a keen sense of empowerment for the world-public.\u00a0 I am grateful.\u00a0\u00a0I could never have done what he did to get this into print.\u00a0 After all, frustration is part of any job and greatly disliked!<\/p>\n

The above introduction highlights this delightful family-and-children’s book.\u00a0 It\u00a0will be available for puchase August 16, 2013.\u00a0\u00a0Colorfully pictured, it is a 107-page, lightweight paperback\u00a0book with\u00a0 ISBN 978 1490354873 for your convenience.\u00a0 Yes, it is available via e-readers.\u00a0 However, and unknown to me at the time of submittal, e-readers to do not show the illustrations in color, only black & white.\u00a0 It’s cheaper that way, truth be told.<\/p>\n

“Me & My Money Too…a child’s story with<\/span> diabetes” is soon to follow with “Kisses for Cash…a child’s story about<\/span> diabetes.”\u00a0 I know you will enjoy reading this in all its formats as much as I enjoyed writing it (them)!\u00a0 Please leave a review.\u00a0 And you are always welcome and encouraged to leave a comment.<\/p>\n

Thank you and take care…important words to live with.<\/p>\n
