SIDELIGHTS:

Sheila M. Kelly told CA: "My writing is a collaborative process with photographer Shelley Rotner. Our goal is few words, exactly matched to photographs. I chose subjects that related to my work, or about which I perceived a need in my therapeutic work with young children, their parents and teachers."
