| Meg loved to ride her bike. This was her third adaptive bike. |
Every month I plan a different topic for my blog that interest me and
readers. This blog was going to be about being grateful
for the amount of sales my children’s book CUZ, I CAN sold.
However things have shifted in the world. The covid-19 has
jolted the world into a quarantine. Social distancing is a new word
in our vocabulary. Zoom is the new way to gather for work and
leisure. This new "normal" made me question what to write about.
I wondered "Should I write about something positive when
so many people are suffering in the world with this awful virus? It seems
wrong or does it?"
My answer to my own question is ....... "HECK YES !!!"
We need to continue to share positive things with each other, to celebrate life,
to have hope, and to give thanks.
In today’s blog I am going to do the number one thing on my list of gratitude.
I am going to share in my blog a little bit of happiness and positivity.
Below is what you shared with me over the last few months.
Let's celebrate CUZ, I CAN together. CUZ WE Can !!!

Amazing book that tells how those with disabilities can do whatever they put their minds too!
I've read it to my son many times and bought a few others to take to daycare and share with
other friends! Just buy it...you won't be disappointed!

This heartwarming story follows Meghann, who was born with cerebral palsy, through her day to
day life. The story is told in a way that shows Meghann's true determined spirit, as she rises
to the challenges of living with cerebral palsy while having such a positive attitude. This book
does a great job of raising awareness of cerebral palsy for both younger readers and adults alike.

This book perfectly captures the creativity involved in being differently-abled in a typical world.
With a little ingenuity, there are no limits! The author explores many recreational opportunities
that may not look exactly the same, but end with the same results. There's a very cute play on
words going on as well, with "cuz" used to refer to her cousin, and to replace the word "because."
A thoroughly lovely and enjoyable read!
