At the Resource Fair last week during TPS at MSU Denver's annual Teacher Librarian Day, I picked up a list of picture books, non-fiction books, and fiction books in a Denver Public Library flyer titled "The Disability Experience." I've pasted scans of the flyer below. The flyer does not exist in electronic form, but Denver Public Library's Ask@DenverLibrary.org service provided me with a link to all the titles in their catalog: http://catalog.denverlibrary.org/view.aspx?brs=126721,126269,57525
