Dit was inderdaad \u2019n spoggeleentheid toe Leonard Bailey, \u2019n oudleerder van Dorothea Spesiale Skool en \u2019n Suid-Afrikaanse kampioen, se boek bekendgestel is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vriende en familie van Lenny, soos hy alombekend staan, het Saterdag (3 Augustus) bymekaargekom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n Eikestadnuus<\/i> het onlangs berig Lenny se ouers, Angelina en David Bailey, het \u2019n jaar gelede besluit om vir hul downssindroom-seun \u2019n boek Goud vir Lenny<\/span> saam te stel. Die doel van hierdie boek was tweeledig. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Eerstens sou die boek ander ouers en die bre\u00eb gemeenskap bewus maak dat alle drome van alle kinders deur harde werk waar gemaak kan word. Lenny is \u2019n vyfmalige nasionale wenner in spiesgooi, diskus en gewigstoot en bring hoop om te volhard. Tweedens word die winste van die boek aangewend om Lenny se sport-uitgawes te dek. Sy ouers is albei pensioen\u00adtrekkers en werk hard, saam met familie en vriende, om gesellighede te re\u00ebl om Lenny by sportbyeenkomste te kry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Dit was \u2019n emosionele geleentheid, omdat Lenny by kere nie kon ophou dankie s\u00ea met trane van vreugde en dankbaarheid nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bel Angelina by 084 089 0280 om Goud vir Lenny<\/span> teen R250 te bestel.
