"Cindy Chambers has written another wonderful children's book, My Friend Has Special Needs, illustrating that children with special needs are a wanted, loving, integral part of a family. These "unique, gifted, and special" people can give, as well as receive, friendship and love. Jim Huber's illustrations help tell this touching story of a special family. As Director of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation at Inova Loudoun Hospital, I see these families every day, and I highly endorse this new book to all audiences young and old."

"My Friend Has Special Needs is powerful and so needed in today's society. Cindy Chambers so beautifully opens the readers eyes to better understand what life is like as a mother, father, family member or friend to an individual with special needs and she does it with such compassion and love. This inspiring children's book helps any reader understand that a person's feelings aren't disabled no matter what disabilities or challenges one may face in life. Any family with of a special needs child would be lucky to have friends like Kyle and Beamer in their lives."
