will make you smile. Beautifully illustrated by Amy Sellers and written
by Paige Hanson, whose original purpose was to earn money to go to the
Columbus School for Girls. Paige has always been an avid reader so when
she asked her dad what she could do to earn money, not even looking up
from his work on Good Debt, Bad Debt, (Penguin 2005) he grumbled,
"write a book!"
Paige and Jon met Amy Sellers and became
involved in fundraising for The Out of the Rain Society to fund Autism
Research. Amy Sellers and Out of the Rain Society support the mission of
University of Central Florida and the Center for Autism and Related
Diseases (CARD). Fifty percent of the proceeds from Harry Spotter
will go to the Out of the Rain Society. This includes online sales and
special event fundraisers with other organizations, and corporate
sponsors.
Amy Sellers graduated from the University
of Southern Florida, with a fine arts degree in 1987. Samples of her
work are on display at the University of Central Florida and at several
locations throughout the U.S. Amy's son Drew has Asperger's syndrome.
Amy donates huge amounts of her time towards fund raising, autism
awareness, and her art work. Look for more titles Illustrated by Amy
