Michael Vey

Earlier this year, Kenna's english class had the opportunity to read an unpublished book by Richard Paul Evans and then write an essay about it.  It's a fun sci-fi/hero type story about a boy who has Tourettes Syndrome and some pretty cool powers.
When Kenna told her teacher that her brother has Tourettes she gave her a copy of the manuscript to give him.  Matt loved this book!
Kenna had the opportunity to meet RPE (who has Tourettes) and be interviewed about the book.  You can see a bit of her interview on the book's website here.
The big launch party for the book "Michael Vey - Prisoner of Cell 25" was last night.  They had a ton of activities and RPE was there signing books.  The kids were able to meet him and get their books signed.  He remembered Kenna and thanked her for her help and he gave them both a hug :D and graciously personalized Matt's book.  We attended the Utah Chapter Tourettes Syndrome Association picinic the day before.  I am so glad that there are activities like this and amazing people willing to share their stories and help educate others about TSA.  Go Vey!
