What makes a child with a rare disease extraordinary? Explore the answer to this question while sharing a conversation with Evren about what he has learned while growing up with his own rare disease.

Written collaboratively by mother and son, this book opens up a child-friendly discussion about identity, inclusion, and self-concept in light of the challenges and silver linings of living with a rare disease. The gentle lessons draw on the co-author's first-hand experience of growing up with an ultra-rare disease and offer young readers a framework for understanding personal identity and how their rare diseases can help shape it in positive ways. Family members and caregivers are invited to share in this conversation and to customize the reading according to each young reader's developmental needs.

Accompanied by sensitive yet realistic illustrations created by award-winning artist and children's book illustrator Ian Dale, the heartfelt messages introduced in Extraordinary! are intended to uplift and encourage any children living with rare diseases to live their very best lives.
