Our board Chair, Melissa Miles was delighted to have been invited to speak at the Jewish Education Alliance on September 21st. Melissa was the guest speaker during “Food for Thought” and spoke about the need for disability representation in children’s literature.
Part of our mission is to raise awareness of the need to diverse books, so it was wonderful to be able to share this with the group.
Thanks to a generous donation from Leopold’s Ice Cream in Savannah, we were able to deliver almost 2,000 books to Fort Stewart today. These books will be distributed through Morale, Welfare and Recreation to each of the kids ages 3-8 in the Child Development Centers on both Ft. Stewart and Hunter Army Airfield.
One of our foundation’s aims is to raise awareness of kids with disabilities. We can’t wait for the young children of our nation’s service members to dig in to the books!
Huge thanks to Leopold’s and also the staff at MWR Ft. Stewart for making this happen!
We are beyond thrilled to share the news that illustrator Rashad Doucet has signed a contract and begun work on the second of our special needs superhero books!! This book’s working title is Jeremiah Justice Saves Camp!

Check back here for more information as the project progresses. We appreciate all the love and support we’ve received, and love to hear from families who’ve read the book.
**Rashad also has a new book available to preorder now from Simon and Schuster Publishing! Check it out here.
The campers at Camp Trach Me Away in Rutledge, GA, each received their own copy of Jeremiah Justice Saves the Day after hearing the story read by author, Melissa Miles. Thanks to generous donors, we were able to provide these copies at no cost to the camp. We can’t thank you enough. The kids loved the story! Pashowww!!
We are getting amazing feedback from people to let us know how Jeremiah Justice Saves the Day is making a difference to special needs kids. Here is an excerpt of one message: “Just thought I would tell you how much the boy I gave your book to loved it. His mom says he has asked to have it read to him every day. He holds his trading card all the time while zipping around in his power wheel chair throughout his house. He talks about his new super hero a lot! Great job, you are really making a great impact on special needs children everywhere!”
This is exactly what our foundation is here for–to make a difference! Thanks for the wonderful feedback. Please keep it coming, and please review the book on Amazon if you want help spread the word! Thank you.
31 copies of Jeremiah Justice Saves the Day were recently donated to the Savannah Chatham County Public School System. Once the books are distributed, each school in Chatham County with K-5 or K-8 students will have a copy of the book in their media center. One of our foundation’s goals is to donate books to help raise awareness of special needs kids, so we appreciate each donation that has helped make this happen!
If you would like to help us donate more books to schools or children’s hospitals, we would love your support! Use the contact form or donate here. Thank you!

Covid-19 has surely given us pause, but we’ve been working behind the scenes. We were able to donate copies of Jeremiah Justice to all the campers of Camp Trach Me Away again this summer. The camp was virtual, but still great fun for the campers. We received the amazing news that our amazingly talented illustrator Rashad Doucet will illustrate our next book in 2021!! We are SO EXCITED that he’s making time in his incredibly busy schedule, and we are so grateful he loves the project as much as we do.
