Children from around the world enjoy Libbi's books!
Imagine...The PossABILITIES (published October 2018 by Halo Publishing) is a children's book in which the children with limb differences share their stories of resiliency and overcoming challenges to participate in activities in which they enjoy! Each page includes colorful photographs of the children and their inspirational message.
Imagine...Amazing me! (published February 2008 by Halo Publishing) is a children's book which has photographs of children from around the United States and Canada engaging in everyday childhood activities, despite having a limb difference! I wrote this book because my daughter was born with a limb difference. I wanted her to see others like herself and for others to see just how amazing children with limb differences are!
