At the end of the week the kids all showed off their artwork, sharing the flags they’d made, each representing their country of origin. Upon seeing Noah’s artwork Naomi said to them, “that must be Noah’s flag”. And one of the children piped up, “it’s Noahland!” Noahland is actually a life full of wonder, surprises, difficulties, and achievement beyond the expectations of many. It is a glimpse into the things Noah CAN do. It is Noah being an active and visible participant in his community, living his best life, and encouraging others to do the same. I am continually in awe of Noah and his mom and their many adventures. It is my hope that the readers – whatever their age – will be able to come into Noah’s world, get to know and enjoy him, and discover for themselves that we are more alike than they could have imagined! https://www.finallyphyllis.org/author daily 0.75 2024-02-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618b2959ea94a12c52637ea5/70f6888c-b3b1-4d3e-bf86-0be6625cb41d/Screenshot_20211118-211137.png About The Author - Phyllis Leyden-Alexander Phyllis Leyden-Alexander is an author, entrepreneur, and Noah’s grandmother, whose life adventures are captured in the children’s book series, “Adventures in Noahland.” The books help reduce the discomfort some students and adults may feel around kids who are different from themselves due to disability. Phyllis brings passion and first-hand experience (even rapping and singing country music!) to convey ‘different doesn’t mean less than’ when speaking with school-age children, students with an early childhood education major, and educators. Her books have also been used by universities in developing lesson plans and strategies for general early education instruction. Association with Camp ASCCA, a nationally recognized Easter Seals camp, and the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute (BCRI), a part of the National Park Service, help extend Phyllis’ reach in bringing awareness to the history of disability. A NYC native, Phyllis now resides in Pittsburgh, PA with husband Louis. Together they share 5 children and six incredibly perfect grandchildren, of whom Noah is the youngest. Noahland is a very real place where meals are received through a tummy tube, and leg braces, wheelchair and therapies are a part of life. But as you begin reading you discover a thoroughly likeable kid who enjoys doing the same things typical kids do, just in a different way! The book is a wonderful tool for parents and teachers to use when talking to children about those who are different from themselves due to disabilities.
