Editorial Reviews

"For 25 years, the Vascular Birthmarks Foundation has been communicating on a daily basis with families affected by a vascular birthmark, anomaly, or associated syndrome, such as a port wine stain. A common theme with our daily communication is "where can I find a book that will encourage my child?" When I read Made Marvelous by Adree Williams about her beautiful and precious daughter Rose and her port wine stain birthmark, I knew that the book that families had been waiting for had arrived. It's inclusive of the family and inclusive of facts and strategies for families affected by a vascular birthmark. That's important to VBF, as we believe that a vascular birthmark is inclusive of the entire family. The rhymes are fun, lighthearted and catchy. That's important too.VBF wants to create joy. The story of Rose, her family, and her birthmark is every story of a child with a birthmark. It's precious. It's also informative and provides strategies for parents who are often confronted with rude stares, comments and questions about their child's birthmark. It's about diversity, but it is also about the normal life of a child who just happens to have a vascular birthmark. All vascular birthmarks are unique, like snowflakes, just like all children are unique, like Rose. It is my privelege to write this review for Made Marvelous by Adree Williams because we, at VBF, also believe that every child born with a vascular bithmark has been made marvelous!!!!"
