All Different and Beautiful
"This heartwarming, uplifting story clears the way for important discussions with our children about diversity, disability, and the beauty in each of us. Every child is unique and beautiful—they may look different, have a different culture, interests and hobbies, or special needs. This delightfully illustrated rhyming book with its uplifting message celebrates diversity and inclusion in a beautiful, empathetic way. Follow kind and confident Orion through his first day of school as he befriends all the kids who might be different from him. Young readers will learn about different ways to be kind, to make new friends, and that it is safe to be themselves. This is the story of Orion—a happy and loving young boy. A story that reaches the mind and soul." -- publisher
We Want To Go To School!
"There was a time in the United States when millions of children with disabilities weren't allowed to go to public school. But in 1971, seven kids and their families wanted to do something about it. They knew that every child had a right to an equal education, so they went to court to fight for that right. The case Mills v. Board of Education of the District of Columbia led to laws ensuring children with disabilities would receive a free, appropriate public education. Told in the voice of Janine Leffler, one of the millions of kids who went to school because of these laws, this book shares the true story of this landmark case." -- publisher
