8Braver Than I May Know is an encouraging, creative, poetic introduction to a series of books that showcases the bravery of children living with different conditions, physical impairments, and the individual challenges they overcome in their day-to-day lives.

Ranging from Sickle Cell Disease to Leukemia to Spina Bifida and others, the goal of this series is to raise awareness of these conditions, while simultaneously giving children who have them continued hope for their future. While there may be many hardships to endure throughout life, they can still thrive as their conditions do not define them. As human beings capable of love, deep thought, and the ability to do amazing things, our children should be reminded of the beauty of life while grappling with their medical condition. What originally began as an attempt to offer comfort to my own daughter, who has Sickle Cell Disease, has evolved into a means of support for all children with varying afflictions. Our goal with this series is to educate, inspire, and help teach compassion and understanding to children and parents who are fortunate enough not to be affected.
