Exactly 3 years ago, Mr Maple came into my life and changed it forever 💞 #dogtok #guidedog #blind

I know I prank Paul a lot (something we both love!) but today I want to do something special for him. He doesn’t know I made this video, but I’m posting it in hopes that you’ll take a closer look at his new book, “Adoroscopes”. It’s Paul’s whimsical version of the 12 astrological signs and it’s a truly special book for all ages. I also think it will make a great Christmas present! I have to admit, this clip of Paul gets me a little choked up. These days it’s not unusual to find him asleep on the couch with his art tablet (and Mr Maple) within arm’s reach. Ever since I met Paul 8 years ago, he’s been pursuing his artistic dreams despite a diagnosis with untreatable blindness. His disease is progressive, so even in our years together he has lost a significant amount of vision. With roughly 5% of his sight remaining, his dream is to create as many books as possible before all his vision is gone, and I’ll do anything to support his dreams. I’ve never known anyone who works as hard as Paul, especially given the obstacles he faces every day. Thank you so much for following our journey and supporting Paul’s dreams along the way 💞 #booktok #bookish #blind #artist

Replying to @Shopgirldolly Never doubt the power of TikTok! 🤯 Thank you for turning this really sad moment into something wonderful and magical and full of love ❤️ We are both truly blown away by the response. The books that were returned have been purchased, plus a LOT more! In fact we are temporarily out of stock, but another shipment is on its way (you can still place an order). You can also order Paul’s first book, The Pengrooms! It’s equally special. THANK YOU!! #booktok #bookish #author #illustrator #viral
