published (in print) Encouragement Stories (c) books & Poems to the
public online for free.



MasterpieceFactory Inc. was founded by Christopher A. Chaplin in 2006
as a multiple arts genre production company specializing in publishing
literature that educates and desensitizes people to unique developmental
(all life) challenges.

Stumbling Upon My Purpose, Mr. I-Presume & Friends Activity Book,

difficulties of his condition.



Book Reviews:



Tara Stephen (teacher) says,

"Christopher A. Chaplin has filled a niche for the parents, siblings,
teachers, caregivers and classmates of special needs children. It was a
joy to stumble onto picture books that clearly explain and creatively
illustrate the perspective of parent and child. The world of autism,
ADHD and other diagnoses can challenge and baffle those who come in
contact with them each day. Chaplin's stories are written in such a way
as to allow the reader to gently enter this unique world. They are a
comfortable read-aloud with plenty of opportunity for discussion at the
level of the listener.

Sharing from his own experiences, Chaplin's books are an invaluable
educational tool for families and teachers trying to understand the
difficulties these precious little ones may encounter in a seemingly
ordinary daily routine. Every school, daycare and doctors office should
have copies as a gentle way to inform and educate adults, and to
sensitively answer the questions of children."

Dr. Bob says, (Counselling psychologist)

"This little volume contains poems and short essays by Chris on a
variety of relevant topics, and an outline of the contribution his
various other books can make to the education of a multiple-handicapped
child. He is a shining example of how to turn adversity into an
opportunity for personal growth, giving and love."



Dr. Bob Rich - "The Australian Journal of Counselling Psychology"

began his professional writing career in the early 1990s.



He is a self-taught writer who possesses a refreshing enthusiasm to

decisions parents of children diagnosed with A.D.H.D are forced to make
as their busy and spontaneous mid-graders begin to manifest their
desires for independence.

He's never been to the store by himself, and he asks Mama to please let
him go today. While on his way to the store, he embarks on an adventure
of riding a train and then a bus, and is delighted by the sights he sees
along the way. Mama desperately attempts to catch up to her son before
he realizes that he didn't do what Mama told him to do and panics.
Bodola is crafted by an experienced parent with the intention of
optimizing the reading experience and enabling its audience to obtain a
fuller comprehension of A.D.H.D and associated theories of the mind,
which will in turn empower its readers to self-regulate the
development of deleterious behaviours.
