| Publisher Helps With A Unique Dream |

I would like to thank Granting Dreams and West Bow Print for allowing me realize an amazing dreamIn April of this year, I was diagnosed with recurring breast cancer. My first diagnosis was in 2008. Having worked at a cancer center, I know that recurring in such a short time, (less than 3 years) is not a good thing. I began to think of the legacy I will leave behind. Since I'm a children's book writer and illustrator, I decided I'd like to leave a literary legacy. I've written a book called, "The Lizard In The Laundry". I contacted the Granting Dreams Foundation and this was my request, "I'd like to have a publisher publish my book, with a portion of the books going to children who are facing life threatening illnesses, and a portion of the book's proceeds to go to Granting Dreams Foundation to help other people's dreams come true." To make a long story short, Granting Dreams actively pursued my dream. Thomas Nelson Publishing Company agreed to publish my book through their subsidiary company, WestBow Press. The book's publishing project was just recently completed and a press release just sent out about my story and the book.  It's been an amazing journey throughout the process of publishing this children's book. I feel blessed above and beyond all that I could possibly have asked for. I know that "The Lizard in the Laundry" will make a big impact in helping others with life threatening diseases. My story is a heart warming dream of wanting to help others, even in the face of a terrible disease like breast cancer. We can all do something to help others if we try. I hope that you will feel inspired to play a major role in this story and purchase one or two copies of this fun children's book for yourself, as a gift, or to give as a donation (to a Ronald McDonald House, oncology center, children's hospital, Toys for Tots, or a number of other places) where it is sure to bring a smile to a child. By doing this one small act of kindness, you support not only my dream to leave a literary legacy behind, but your purchase will also support the Granting Dreams Foundation so they may help grant more dreams and a book that you donate will continue to pay it forward as it reaches many children for a long time to come.
