A Beautifully illustrated & written (paperback) by Clare Latham with Foreword by Lee Ridley, Lost Voice Guy: "I enjoyed reading this book, and I hope you will as well. I found this book very relatable. It is so nice to see a representation of people with communication difficulties in books such as this one."

Just as the heroine in these stories, in real life Erin is a young girl who cannot walk, talk or use her hands. She has cerebral palsy. Within are subtle messages for her and many others such as 'never give up', 'I am able just as I am', 'reading gives one so much' and 'accept me as me'.

Clare Latham was asked by SpecialEffect founder Dr Mick Donegan if she could build a communication system with Erin, which she did together with her Mum and personal assistant. Erin's tenacity, ability and sense of fun then spurred Clare to write these stories from their shared experiences and, as it were, keep her going.

Author proceeds all go to charity SpecialEffect, whose device Erin communicates with.
