“Ms. Gerlach came to present Ben's Adventures to the kindergarten, 1st, 2nd, and multi-needs classrooms. Her presentation sparked many great discussions among students about what it means to accept everyone's differences. Her book allowed my students to see how imagination allows us all to dream.” Beth Semyck, LMC Director, Mill Creek Elementary at Mill Creek in Geneva IL
