Collaborative Author with Ella's Way! Jude's Best Worst Day Ever is ELLA Kindness Certified!
Catherine Clark Felts has been accepted to join as a collaborative author with the non-profit Ella's Way!
Ella's Way believes that early learning leads to acceptance (E.L.L.A). Their mission is to promote kindness through acceptance of differences. With educating young children about the concepts of differences, companionship, and disability, young children will be more accepting of differences as they begin to form their first friendships (ages 4-7 years). Using Ella's Way children's books, they provide enrichment programs that introduce the concepts of kindness, disability, acceptance and friendship.
They are currently expanding their offerings to include grief and other Social Emotional Learning topics, most recently "Jude's Best Worst Day Ever"!
Catherine Clark Felts is honored and thrilled to start promoting Ella's Way with local businesses, assist with fundraising, and securing Ella's Way book donations to local schools, libraries, and hospitals in Central Virginia.
