Can I Sit With You? August 9, 2008

Can I Sit With You? (http://www.CanISitWithYou.org) is an ongoing book and blog project, sharing our stories of school age triumphs and bewilderment. These tales will touch anyone who has ever struggled to fit in with the other kids at school, wondered about feeling different, or felt like no one could possibly understand what they're going through.

Proceeds from the sale of this edition of Can I Sit With You? benefit the fledgling Special Education PTA of Redwood City, CA (http://www.septar.org)

Join editors Shannon Des Roches Rosa and Jennifer Byde Myers as they discuss the process of the book's creation from blog to book.

Artist Lea Hernandez (http://www.divalea.deviantart.com and http://www.divalea.livejournal.com) will be sharing her creative process for the cover art.
Contributing authors Michael Procopio (http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food) and Amanda Jones (http://www.amandajonestravel.com) will be reading their passages from the book.
