For this week, we are featuring children’s books embracing disabilities and differences. It is beneficial to read books such as these to promote inclusion, engage in discussions, and help cope with difficult feelings, which is important when reading about children with disabilities. I have listed 18 books below that you can check out in the Children’s Department or place a hold on through our website’s catalog. We have numerous titles that highlight their stories, and we encourage everyone to check them out, including these ones! Enjoy!
