Oh, and you should save this because we're going to build a list together in the comments!! ⤵️
The stories we share with kids help shape the way they see the world (and the people in it!!)
When children see disabled and neurodivergent characters in books, they learn empathy, understanding, and belonging from the start.
No, of course books aren’t the end-all, be-all solution to inclusion...
But they CAN be a powerful starting point.
They open doors to conversations, challenge assumptions, and show kids that every kind of brain and body belongs.
So whether you’re filling a classroom library or picking out bedtime stories, we encourage you to make it a habit of including books that reflect all kinds of lives.
Help us help other families by dropping your favorite inclusive children’s books in the comments - we'll start! 👇
