Most Exceptional Me

About The Book Sam has out-of-this-world dreams for himself and he just started an exciting adventure- kindergarten! While he’s looking forward to learning many new things, Sam wasn’t prepared for all the challenges he would face along the way. With a little help and encouragement from his teacher, he learns to explore his emotions so he can do anything he sets his mind to. As it turns out, learning to love himself has been his favorite lesson yet! About The Authors Tiffany and Lauren met in 2012 during their graduate studies in Communication Disorders. Tiffany later completed her masters at Chapman University and Lauren completed hers at San Diego State University. They both pursued careers as Speech-Language Pathologists working with children in elementary school and private practice settings. It wasn’t until they began working in the field that they realized the tremendous role emotional well-being plays in a child’s academic and social success. This inspired them to come together to create Most Exceptional ME as a resource for children, parents, teachers, and therapists. It is their hope that Sam will inspire children to work through uncomfortable emotions by identifying their feelings and believing in themselves. After all, when confidence and creativity are encouraged, a child is capable of anything. About The illustrator Dan McGeehan wears many different hats.
