THANK YOU! We're Donating $50 to Children's Alopecia Project
Thanks to 10 customers who added $5 to have their Beanies book signed by co-author Matthew Shelby recently, we are donating $50 to Children's Alopecia Project!
If you want to join in giving to this organization that supports children with hair loss from Alopecia while gifting a book that shares "different isn't bad, different is just different," just add this option from the drop-down menu to any Beanies order.
Happy Unboxing Day to Beanies, Ball Caps, and Being Bald by Tracy Peterson with Matthew Shelby
Stories have tremendous power to connect us all to our humanity. To share them takes bravery, and there are few braver than Matthew Shelby who shares the story of how he became bald (“there were no other kids who were bald or even kind of bald”) and discovered he had alopecia areata.
In this series of pictures, Matthew and his real-life first grade teacher and author Tracy Peterson unbox the first copies of Beanies after they arrived from the printer!
