One of our new Roster Artists and former special educator Theresa Mackiewicz is speaking to children with special needs in a new way. Her book "Scribbles" is giving them a voice. "Scribbles is a young girl who struggles in school. She would rather draw her favorite animal, frogs, all day. Mrs. Sunshine notices her struggle and guides her in her schoolwork so she can feel successful in both environments: school and drawing," Mackiewicz wrote.
