    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

    Such an important topic and subgroup of our learners, especially since the Justice Departments has recently scrapped ADA guidance!

    Thanks for sharing that article! I am a huge fan of the Schneider Family Book Awards. They have expanded my personal notion of ability.
