The Disability Experience: Working Toward Belonging by Hannalora Leavitt
informative
medium-paced
5.0
A very good book that gives us (especially able bodied people) a look into the lives persons with disabilities (PWD) and how the world can easily accommodate — but, more often than not, it doesn’t.
As the parent of a child with a neurodivergent disability, and myself having a parent with physical disabilities, I found this book very informative as there is always more room for us to improve and grow.
This book was written for YAs but it is appropriate for all ages, and could easily be read to and discussed with younger children. It’s an excellent way to help all of us understand more about the lives of PWD.
