Meg Zucker shares how she wrote her book Born Extraordinary for parents of children with differences to learn “how best to empower their children." Born with “one finger on each hand… and one toe on each misshapen foot,” Meg’s parents loved her unconditionally with the perspective that we are all different in some way whether visible or invisible. With her own children, two which were also born with the same genetic condition, Meg teaches them they were “born extraordinary”– something we can all learn and pass on.
