These books will be used during whole class read alouds, small group teachings, book clubs, and independent reading times. Reading books about kids with different disabilities and different backgrounds will help my students not only feel proud of their own uniqueness but also help them understand their classmates and others they will encounter in their lives. Rules, a book about a boy with autism; Fish in a Tree, a book about a child with learning disabilities; Wonder, a book about a boy with facial deformities; and the several books about kids from different ethnicities will finally allow my students to see themselves in books and have someone to look up to and learn from. Not only will this help them feel more confident, but when students can connect with the characters in a book they are able to comprehend at a deeper level.
