It's so important for students to have access to books that they can relate to. For students who are deaf or hard of hearing, this is extra true! If students can find themselves in the characters, settings, and stories they read, not only does it support their reading and literacy skills, but it also benefits their sense of self and identity.
Deaf students need access to books that provide them with "windows and mirrors" - the opportunity to see how others like them live, and to see themselves in the pages, too!
I'm asking for a collection of books for my K-12 classroom book collection, with deaf/hard of hearing characters, and/or deaf culture.
