Early Reviewers

Sandy Writes Her Story is a heartfelt picture book about living with invisible illness or invisible struggles and finding healing through creativity, self-authorship, and connection.

When Sandy meets Thea, a wise turtle who encourages her to share her story, she learns to name her feelings, honor her limits, and discover that even when her illness can't be seen, she can-and her story matters.

A tender celebration of emotional expression and the importance of being seen, Sandy Writes Her Story is written for children—and the adults who support them—navigating chronic illness, big feelings, and the early stages of self-understanding.
