Author's note
I wrote Stella the Rejected Star when I was a wide-eyed, 11 year-old. Thirty-seven years later, the story is even more relevant personally when I consider my 13 year-old beautiful son, Brady, who was born at 24 weeks at one pound, six ounces.
Brady was a twin, and tragically his brother, Carson, passed away after two weeks.Now, Brady is a blind, nonverbal boy with autism who has sometimes been rejected for his differences; however, he radiates love and light every day in my life and so many others.
I want to express my sincere gratitude to a close friend and brilliant artist, Seth Thompson, who helped bring Stella to life through his perfect illustrations.
Stella the Rejected Star is for Brady and all individuals with special needs who illuminate the world when, like Stella, they are given the opportunity to shine.
With love,
