We hope that it inspires you whether or not you have a special condition. We are also proud to provide a glowing reference for any other organisations who would like to know more about Leanna. By Leanna Mills - Blog Contributor & Brand Ambassador When I turned 13 years old, my Parkinson’s disease symptoms became severe and I became sick while my body became much less mobile. As a result, I’ve had many operations to help me to recover and gain more mobility. I believe with modern medicine you could be lucky like I was and have good results. Previously, I struggled to do some really simple things in life but now as a result of these operations, I can eat and drink, sit up and I’ve begun to stand with support. I can also now go outside although I still need someone’s help. This probably all sounds like really basics tasks for most people but before these operations, I couldn’t do these things and many more.
Yes, there is a risk when having an operation and it’s something you need to think about carefully. You could potentially end up worse but the upside can be so great when it gives you a chance to live life. My tip is to get good medical advice, consider your situation now compared to what it could be and of course, be brave!
I can’t believe how sad, angry and lonely I was been in bed, sick and immobile. So now, every day l make sure I go outside and see the beautiful sunshine and all the life out there. A big reason I believe how I was able to improve my life was by spending time with people that lovingly take me outside to feel the warm sunlight and see wonderful rainbows. It just makes me smile and laugh, while taking everything off my mind. I don’t think about being sick or having a disability, I just think of life and how lucky I am to be here. All that matters to me, is I am here today living in the moment and appreciating the wonderful things I can do because previously I wasn’t able to do. Now I’m lucky enough to be able to write this blog for you, create art, bake a cake, volunteer to help kids, going out, take photos and live life happily. If you would like to learn more about me, please see and message me via my Facebook page. I am keen to get involved and love being part of the community.

Amanda enthusiastically jumped at the opportunity to author the first adventure in the Here's How You Can Too! children’s short stories range which aims to provide kids with how-to knowledge and promote a can-do attitude. She has studied children’s literature and loves to create characters that children engage with and will be able to learn alongside. She lives in Sydney, Australia with her partner Jeremy, their son Jonathan and their 'fur-baby' Frank.  In coming days, we will be launching another Tips and Tricks book. We are so excited to share it with you. The Tips and Tricks range is aimed at older primary school children who are look for a how to book and is ready to give it a go for the first time. It presents the information as a simple guide using illustrations and simple kid-friendly instructions.  "Jake runs up first and his Grandfather passes him his favorite, a yummy vanilla ice cream with chocolate topping covered in colorful sprinkles. Asmita, Mei and Lucy create a line excitedly, waiting to purchase their ice creams, but Leo and Kemba stand back. Neither boy has any money to buy ice cream."  “We’re going to hold a garage sale but at the park. We have heaps of stuff we don’t really play with anymore,” Matt says. “Like your cousins Billy and Jane did? What a great idea kids, they made quite a lot of money selling their old toys,” Mom replies.

This one-off drawing is part of our Kid Food Explorer series to engage with children to immerse themselves in the world of food, cuisines, cooking and culture.  In our Kid Food Explorer book, we investigate where food comes from, sometimes in more humorous situations. Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Chickens are fun pets but like any animal can be spooked especially near their eggs. You need to be careful when collecting the eggs. This one-off drawing is looks different to our regular illustrations as it is hand coloured using colored pens and markers.  In our Tips and Tricks series, we use an example of a kid cleaning service to learn about scheduling, how personal traits can play into a business selection and inspiring some specific services. Does a kids cleaning business suit you? Do you have a keen eye for attention to detail and know what good hygiene is? Have you had lots of practice vacuuming the floors or washing dishes? Do you know how long raking a leaves of a front yard would take?  A page from our Best Seller Kid Food Explorer. One important step in exploring food is understanding where food comes from as well as how it can brings people together by bridging differences. Leo, Lucy and Suzy are all in the garden picking fresh fruit and vegetables. This is a fun way to get kids outdoors, involved and connected to the food they eat. Later that day, Leo brings around some home rolled sushi he made, while Lucy prepares a salad. It shows, food doesn't always need to be cooked, rather prepared. This can make it safer for kids to get involved.  |
