Sophy's Story — April Kihlstrom

SOPHY'S STORY is a series of photographs and captions designed to engage young and special needs readers with moments they can relate to such as: looking for presents under a Christmas tree, making a mess with muddy paws, sitting on mom's lap, wanting to sit in the front seat of them car (but having to sit in the back), etc. Because these are real moments in a real dog's life, it is easier for young children and individuals such as those with autism or Down Syndrome to understand and connect with the words on the page. When April Kihlstrom could not find any books appropriate for her adult son with Down Syndrome, she decided to create her own. SOPHY'S STORY is the first in what will be a series of books meant to be particularly accessible for special needs children, teens and adults and at the same time delight young children of all capabilities.
