Jo Lynam hoped for years that her daughter Emma would learn to read and write. She thought this skill was essential for Emma to find a job, but it turned out to be the secret of her success.

Emma now runs her own "Master Shredder" business in Townsville, North Queensland, and has four clients including solicitors and a credit union.

Watching Emma's enthusiasm for what she does and hearing her mother's dedication to raising an independent child despite the obvious challenges is nothing short of inspiring.
