Created in 1950, the "All By Herself" book teaches young children to dress. The "All By Himself" book released soon after. The pages are filled with instructions on how to tie shoes, zip up zippers, snap buttons, and tie ribbons. The book was later presented to patients with cerebral palsy to learn sufficient muscular coordination to dress themselves.
