The word disability can sometimes be confusing to a child. Literature helps children understand real-life situations in their own language. Here are some books you may find helpful when talking to your child:
A Friend Like Simon by Kate Gaynor (Autism)
Don’t Call Me Special by Pat Thomas (Physical Disability)
Shelley the Hyperactive Turtle by Deborah M. Moss (ADHD)
We’ll Paint the Octopus Red by Stephanie Stuve-Bodeen (Down Syndrome)
