Dedicated to Rylie: The Amazing, Awesome Alphabet
Author Cindy DeLuca surprised the Maginn Family when she told them her new book, The Amazing, Awesome Alphabet, would be dedicated to their daughter, Rylie. Cindy is a retired special education teacher and was a coworker of Rylie’s mom. “She could have dedicated her book to anyone but she said Rylie with her beautiful smile came to her in a dream one night”, comments Heather Maginn. Rylie is a 5 year old sweetheart with Pitt Hopkins Syndrome. Cindy is generously donating one dollar from each book sold to the Pitt Hopkins Research Foundation. On February 7th, Cindy and illustrator, Brenda Messinger-Voll, had their first book signing for The Amazing, Awesome Alphabet at Mycalyn Florals in Nazareth, PA. Cindy invited Rylie to be there to stamp the books with a purple butterfly stamp. “It was an amazing experience. People were able to meet Rylie and learn something about Pitt Hopkins Syndrome. We can’t thank Cindy enough for her generosity!”
