Author Phyllis Hoppes' New Book "How I Became A Superhero" Captures the Special Side of Special Needs Children
Recent release "How I Became A Superhero" from Page Publishing author Phyllis Hoppes shows the big impacts of small acts in the lives of children with disabilities.
COCOA, Fla., Oct. 31, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Phyllis Hoppes, a United States Marine veteran, has completed her new book "How I Became A Superhero": a moving children's story that breaks down the complicated aspects of special needs children, and how those close to them can become their superheroes.
"This book was written in honor and in memory of my youngest child, Ashley, who was a special needs child," Hoppes said of her inspiration for writing the book. "At the age of three, Ashley was diagnosed with mitochondrial disease and also had cri du chat syndrome. She never walked and spoke about twenty words. The rest, she signed.
Ashley had two superheroes—her sister Nikki (whom she called Nini) and her brother Ricky!"
Published by New York City-based Page Publishing, Phyllis Hoppes' inspiring story shows how acts of kindness as simple as pushing a wheelchair, spending time reading a book to someone who cannot read on their own, or even just watching cartoons in the same room can brighten the day of a special needs child.
Accompanied by vivid illustrations to compliment the storyline, the book offers tips for those whose lives are directly affected by special needs, or even those who may only have limited contact.
Readers who wish to experience this heartfelt work can purchase "How I Became A Superhero" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play or Barnes and Noble.
