In this video, I’m sitting down with children’s book author Cindy Boudreaux to talk about something that matters so much in both classrooms and homeschool spaces: teaching inclusion in a way kids can actually understand. We chat about her picture book, “Possibilities,” and the simple-but-powerful message that keeps coming up—don’t stare, be brave, give a little wave. I love how practical that is for kids, because it gives them a script for what to do when they notice someone who looks or moves or communicates differently. Cindy shares the heart behind the story, inspired by her daughter Alyson, and we talk about looking beyond first impressions and seeing the whole person. This conversation is also tied to Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS) awareness, and Cindy explains why she’s been so devoted to supporting the TTTS Foundation. If you’re a teacher, parent, or homeschool family looking for a meaningful read-aloud plus a gentle way to build empathy, kindness, and disability awareness, this interview will give you ideas you can use right away—without making it heavy or overwhelming.
