During that time, I developed an affinity for children with special needs and continue to strive to highlight the importance of recognizing all our strengths. To that end, in my retirement, a valued colleague-friend and I co-created an organization entitled Believe Beyond Bounds to showcase children and young adults with special needs.In a further attempt to continue to impact young children, I have created some children's picture books. I believe it's never too early to teach our children about positive differences, acceptance, kindness, and inclusion. It is this belief that inspired me to create the Hannah Series and the Bruno Series, picture books for children aged 4-8. It is my hope to focus on the incredible strengths showcased by children with special needs and, through this, continue to support all children, as well as provide resources for both parents and educators.I have recently had the pleasure of co-authoring an SEL (social, emotional learning) curriculum resource for K-3 teachers with Joyce Tam. We have developed an easy-to-use resource that incorporates all 6 of the picture books, focusing on (positive) Differences, Acceptance, Kindness, and Inclusion - The DAKI. Our hope is to support educators in facilitating social-emotional growth in the classroom. In addition, to help create a climate where students will have the opportunity to deepen their understanding of self while supporting one another in a collaborative learning environment.I have also published my first YA novel, Chances Are... my hope with this novel is to impact our young adult audience with a message around learning to appreciate your personal strengths, be unapologetically yourself and your own best friend, always.Author Website: https://sites.google.com/view/klesliebooks/homeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/klesliebooks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/klesliebooks1/Twitter: https://twitter.com/klesliebooksOur Website: www.constantinsbooks.com.Podcast Page: https://constantinspodcast.wixsite.com/cwtcpodcast1Support Us: https://anchor.fm/cwtcpodcast1/supportPandora Link : https://pandora.app.link/4WmtyA6yAobDestiny's CHW Author Site: https://coffeehousewriters.com/author/destiny-constantin/Destiny's Amazon Author Page: https://www.amazon.com/Destiny-Constantin/e/B08QW84ZHN?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1619256834&sr=8-137 min
