“After working with learning different children for years these books truly speak to the emotional journey these children and their parents go through.”

Margaret DeTullio

“I had the pleasure of interviewing Hilary about her books on our show.  She is truly passionate about helping children cope with their differences and instilling the importance of kindness and acceptance with children as well.  The Beatrix books do that and so much more.”

“Beatrix helped me when I felt bad about myself because I was learning different.  Her stories helped me see that different isn’t less and she also showed me how to help others who may be feeling the same way.”
