Author Information
Kristen Lang, formerly Sharpless, is a passionate advocate for the empowerment of blind and low-vision children. As a Certified Orientation and Mobility Specialist and Certified Vision Rehabilitation Therapist, Kristen's dedication to her work with individuals who are blind and low-vision led her to recognize the scarcity of relatable children's books in this field. Driven by a desire to make topics like white canes and orientation and mobility skills inviting and educational, Kristen created ""The Cane Kids: Everett and Willow's Journey in Navigating Legal Blindness."" Inspired by a ""White Cane Awareness Day"" activity, this book aims to fill the gap in children's literature and enlighten the general public about legal blindness. Kristen Lang's books serve not only as a source of inspiration for blind and low-vision children but also as a valuable learning experience for sighted readers. Her heartfelt wish is that readers, both young and old, approach life's challenges with determination, overcome obstacles, and celebrate their achievements.
