I Am Still Me!

By Harper J. Hayes

A gentle, powerful story about strength, identity, and being seen.

Some kids run.
Some kids climb.
Some kids keep going without stopping.

And some kids-like Keegan-move through the world a little differently.

I Am Still Me is a heartfelt, empowering children's book that gently explores what it feels like to live in a body that doesn't always keep up... and the quiet strength it takes to keep showing up anyway.

Through warm, comforting storytelling and beautiful, emotionally rich illustrations, children will discover: That it's okay to feel frustrated, tired, or left out sometimesThat needing help doesn't make you less strongThat kindness, courage, and love matter more than what your body can doThat they are more than their challengesThis story is perfect for: Children with medical complexity or physical differencesSiblings and classmates who want to better understandFamilies navigating chronic illness or disabilityClassrooms focused on inclusion, empathy, and kindnessAt its heart, this story reminds every child:

You are not defined by what you can or cannot do.
You are loved.
You are strong.
You are still YOU.
