Abstract
This book is a step-by-step photo journey of Logan's treatments and surgeries from birth to age 18. Enns says that Making Faces is not intended to be a definitive guide to treatment, as each case of cleft lip and palate and each facial difference is unique. "My hope is that the general experiences and emotions I describe in the book resonate with other children and families." This updated version contains a life update from Enns as well as important new psychosocial resources on self-advocacy, bullying, mental health and more.
