Hello everyone! Thank you for filling out the form to reserve your special FIRST edition copy of Alice’s Colorful New World! What is different about this edition? There are only 100 ever printed of this edition so your book will be numbered by me out of 100. Also, this is signed by myself (author), Sophie Lane (Illustrator), as well as Laurent Clerc’s 4x Great Grandson who wrote the forward in my book. Not only that, but this is a special 9x12 size. The 2nd edition will be smaller and less content.
(Laurent Clerc’s 4x Great Grandson and Kristy Whilden author sign COLOR recreating the cover of the book.)
Alice's Colorful New World vividly portrays the extraordinary journey of Alice Cogswell, a young girl whose silent world is transformed into one of vibrant colorful expression through the efforts of Laurent Clerc, Dr. Mason Cogswell, and Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet. Together, this determined trio pioneer the creation of American Sign Language and establishes the first school for the Deaf in the United States. This inspiring story celebrates Alice's resilience, the power of human connection, and the enduring legacy of Clerc and Gallaudet’s partnership. Through courage, innovation, and teamwork, they illuminate a path toward inclusion and understanding, painting a brighter, more connected world for generations to come.
