I am so impressed by her story, and by her sweet mother.
When Baylee was going through treatment she lost her hair.
Now we all know that while having hair is nice, it's not what makes us beautiful.
Baylee's momma wrote some books all about it.
Here they are:

Baylee's cousin contacted me and asked me to draw up some graphics to go along with the book, so she could create a companion book review. How awesome is that???? What an honor to be included in a small way :)

I love this so much!! I will be sharing this with my sweet friend who is trying to beat brain cancer. She is just 23 and was just this morning telling me how ugly she is feeling. She needs a pick me up, and this is just the thing! You are so sweet to share your talents with others and for letting us get to know this brave girl.
