This is a great book that teaches children that all people are different! It is an autobiography written by Shane Burcaw about having a disability and how it affects his daily life. He also answers many questions people have about others with disabilities. Shane wants to inform people as much as possible about what it's like to have a disability so they understand what it means. One of the main points Shane wants to make is that even though he has his disability, that he's not much different than people without disabilities.
I will definitely have this book in my classroom! It informs students that we are all different and should accept others differences. I chose the grade level to be between K-4th because it is a great book to teach about having a disability at a wide variety of ages. I would use this in my classroom to show students that we are all different and we should accept each other's differences.
