Would you help me welcome our newest children’s book Completely Me by author, Justine Green, Ed.D! to our Christmas Gift Guide Shopping for: Boys & Girls.
I was sent a copy of Completely Me in exchange for a review and spot in our Christmas Gift Guide. I couldn’t wait for the book to arrive to share with Charlie.
As this allowed us to learn about a Disability we didn’t know about and to learn how we could help her feel more accepted. Through the novel Charlie used in our Homeschool Reading Class Charlie has even asked to learn Sign Language as a family. I’m so proud of Charlie for wanting to do this so he can speak to anyone at any time.

Dr. Justine Green’s children’s book titled Completely Me is based on her own life, disability, and coming-of-age journey. Completely Me is a powerful story about a little girl who never noticed there was something different about herself, until others pointed it out instead.
When she stands up for herself, the people around her learn the important lesson of self-acceptance, that everyone is different in their own unique ways, and that those imperfections are what make you perfect.
Author Justine Green was born with Atresia and Microtia. Microtia is a condition where the outer ear does not develop properly and Atresia is the absence of the ear canal, leaving her deaf in her left ear.
Knowing she was different from birth, and boasting three reconstructive surgeries under her belt, Justine learned to read lips and worked hard through school.
She used her disability as motivation instead of an excuse, and ultimately found her life’s purpose through these challenges. Her passion for inspiring others moved her to write a story based on her own life, Completely Me, to teach readers to love themselves and others, and that everyone’s imperfections are what make them perfect.
Completely Me is available in paperback for $12.99 on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, IngramSpark and through Kindle.
