What People are saying

It Starts With Hello gives a wonderful and accurate depiction of a girl with PWS

It Starts With Hello gives a wonderful and accurate depiction of a girl with PWS moving through the daily challenges of having a PWS diagnosis. This story is very accessible for younger children, and may help them connect with the strengths and differences associated with rare diagnoses, and neurodiversity in general. I would highly recommend this book as an opportunity for children with PWS to share their experiences with their peers in a fun and age appropriate way!

I want to share this with everyone!

I want to go in and read this to my daughter’s class, every single year! I would love for parents in the class to read it, so they can really teach their children that Rose is different, but the same, and wants to be included and have friends just like everyone else. This is the first PWS specific book, and it brings tears to my eyes.

It truly is a wonderful story

We absolutely love your book. Thank you so much for putting so much heart and soul into it. Clementine is so excited about reading it every time, knowing how much she can relate to it. Just seeing that warms my heart. Can't say thank you enough, but it truly is a wonderful story.

Love the book

Absolutely love the book "It Starts With Hello." Bought 3, so we each will have a copy and have an extra to use with friends/family who may need a little extra explaining.
