Dear Members & Friends,

I am delighted to share good news about a close friend and 
long-time member of Learning
Ally, Scott MacIntyre.  Well known around the world as the first 
ever blind finalist
on "American Idol," Scott has a special connection to Learning 
Ally: he was a National
Achievement Award winner in 2005, keynoted our NAA celebration in 
Washington, DC
 last year, and continues to be a great celebrity advocate for 
our mission.

Scott has just released a new book, By Faith, Not By Sight.  We 
plan to record it
 soon for Learning Ally members.  In this autobiographical book, 
Scott talks about
how he overcame his disability, how he made it in the music 
industry, how he found
the love of his life, and how he learned that in all things, we 
can truly achieve
our dreams.

g=]What many people may not know is that at 19 years old, Scott 
faced a life-threatening
illness and almost lost his life.  His contagious spirit of 
optimism and heartfelt
stories will take you on an emotional journey of love and 
yearning, hardship and
 hope, from someone who deeply understands the challenge of 
overcoming enormous
adversity - by faith, not by sight.  Here is a description from 
the book jacket:

"Is it possible to be high on a mountain and deep in a valley at 
the same time?
"This isn't a riddle, it's Scott MacIntyre's life.  Each time his 
dreams come true,
Scott finds his nightmares not far behind.  Some call it Murphy's 
Law.  Others call
it bad luck.  Scott has learned to call it a blessing, even when 
circumstances have
threatened to take everything away.

graduate.  Marshall scholar.  Recording artist.  Inspirational 
speaker.
American Idol.  Blind from birth, Scott has had to work harder 
and longer to achieve
his goals.  But when a silent killer begins to undermine his 
success, Scott cannot
work it out alone.  Once again, he must lean on his faith, his 
close-knit family,
 and the life-giving aid of friends to survive.

"Follow Scott's roller-coaster ride to see how the mountains and 
valleys in his
life gave him perspective, hope, and ultimately triumph."

Scott's book, "By Faith, Not By Sight", can be ordered from 
Amazon.
