Trevor Romain Gives Emotional Speech to Wisconsin Counselors, Educators
Stevens Point, Wisconsin — Author, illustrator and child advocate Trevor Romain talked to a group of over 2,000 counselors and educators about his work with children at the annual Wisconsin School Counselor Association Conference on February 26th.
"His speech was outstanding and it touched many hearts," said conference coordinator John Bowen. "We admire what he's done for kids."
In the talk, Trevor shared stories from his new book, "The Art of Caring," about his humanitarian work with children in the Congo and with terminally-ill children in the United States. He thanked the counselors and educators for their work and asked them to continue to give their students hope, especially in their times of adversity.
After the talk, Trevor signed copies of his new book, “The Art of Caring,” which documents the author's travels as a child advocate for the United Nations, the USO and other humanitarian organizations.

About "The Art of Caring"
Inspired by a promise the South African native personally made to Nelson Mandela, “The Art of Caring” is a compilation of stories and adventures that have touched Romain’s soul and are sure to motivate others.
“The Art of Caring” celebrates the story of a young cancer patient who delights in roller-blading through hospitals on only one leg, of a child soldier in Burundi who hands Romain a worn 1890s era coin to buy ice cream “for the children with cancer in the hospital,” and the story of a young girl with a beautiful smile who asked him to “read real loud” so she could hear his new book from heaven.
