A doll means the whole world when you’re a kid. But imagine how it’d feel to realize your plushy friend looks nothing like you. Especially when a kid is unique in his own beautiful way.
Wisconsin-based woman Amy Jandrisevits is making sure no kid ever feels different. She has been creating dolls that look just like their little owners with disabilities, coming in all shapes and forms, with unique conditions and bodily features, for quite a while now. We previously wrote about her wonderful project “A Doll Like Me” a year ago as she was just starting up. Today, her unique dolls are bringing joy to kids from all over the world. With almost 43K likes on her Facebook page, Amy has warmed so many hearts in a way that no medicine could.
