Wonderfully Different, Wonderfully Me features a diverse group of children, celebrates each child’s unique strengths, and promotes inclusion, acceptance and friendship. 

Wonderfully Different, Wonderfully Me is the first book written by Becky Zingale. Becky’s husband, Duane, and their younger daughter have the same syndrome as the main character in the book and movie Wonder. Becky wanted to a similar book for a younger audience. She looked for children’s books with pictures of children who have facial differences and wear Bone Anchored Hearing Aids. Unable to find any such books, Becky’s husband Duane, encouraged her to create the solution, by writing children’s books to share the stories of their family and friends. Becky wanted not only her own daughter, but all children, to see themselves in Wonderfully Different, Wonderfully Me whether they connect with a character’s personal challenges, physical appearance, or personality.

If you are a parent, teacher, or medical professional assisting a child who has special needs, or feels a bit different, Wonderfully Different, Wonderfully Me will inspire your child on their journey.

Becky Zingale is married to Duane, who has a genetic condition called Treacher Collins Syndrome (TCS). They have two beautiful daughters, one of whom has TCS just like her Dada. To hear, they both wear bone-anchored hearing aids (BAHAs). Becky likes to find creative solutions to solve problems, so she makes and sells custom softbands and accessories for BAHAs at TheBahaBowtique on Etsy. Becky also blogs at TheBahaMama.com, sharing inspiring stories that encourage families to thrive through life’s challenges.  Becky’s husband, Duane, has a great sense of humor and loves to be in the spotlight. He is a digital marketing consultant and helps people create connections through sharing their stories. Duane has been encouraging Becky to write children’s books to share the stories of their family and friends, and finally, here it is!  Laurentiu Dumitru lives to draw and create. This is the easiest way to express himself. His life is defined by art. He is a spiritual person, introvert and shy. He loves watching movies and going on trips. Laurentiu loves nature and is fascinated with animals, growing up in the countryside of Romania.
