I'm Special by Jen Green
Written for young children, this book focuses on three common types of disability and shows with sensitivity and gentle humour the day to day experiences of disabled children. It is one of a series, intended to help children deal with emotions they experience in their everyday lives; and contains notes for parents and teachers, with suggestions of ways to promote an understanding of disability, through discussion and role play.
As I have indicated, this material is dealt with sensitively and with humour[...] Each of these [disabilities] is dealt with with a great sense of humanity, while really getting home the important message that it is 'all right to be different'. We definitely need more books of this kind. -- Autumn 2000
