My recently published book Simon's Holey Patch was written to help the Homeless. It started as a class project, a pair of knitting needles and a ball of wool.

After a visit to a local shelter, Simon takes on a project with his grandma's help which leads him to something greater than he ever imagined. Children will learn that they too in some way can help those who are experiencing homelessness. Truly a book for children all ages!
