Milford, Connecticut (PRWEB) July 19, 2007 -- In her remarkable book, "I'm Not So Different," author Juliann Petruccelli shares the story of Jenna, a young woman with Down syndrome, who is "not so different" as her peers might suspect. Inspired by an actual child's enthusiasm and ability to relate to those around her, Petruccelli shares her story in this full-color book.

During the eight years that Petruccelli ran a daycare, Jenna assisted with caring for many of the children, who got to know her for who she was, not based on her disability. Struck by the opportunity to encourage children everywhere to make the same realization, Petruccelli wrote "I'm Not So Different" with Jenna's help, portraying her love of school, her family, and sports -- basketball in particular.

A book told from a unique perspective, "I'm Not So Different" offers a special message to both those who know someone disabled and those who interact with the disabled only on the periphery. Honest and refreshing, it poses a valuable statement: that while no two people are alike, they all want to be treated just like everyone else.
