Resource Update: Books with Disability Representation

Published on 1 March 2023 at 14:30

March 1st is recognized as the Disability Day of Mourning, which honors people with disabilities who have been victims of filicide, or the murder of a person by a close relative, most commonly a parent or caregiver. To mark this occasion, I'm focusing this week's uploads on disability. In the Resources section, you will find a fresh list of books with authentic disability representation. Pick from non-fiction, fiction, and fantasy novels which offer down-to-earth, honest, and sometimes hilarious perspectives on living with a disability. You can also read the latest story upload, Diptych! I'm designing Diptych to be a serial. Back in the day, many books were released a chapter at a time in newspapers and magazines. I'm planning to release Diptych in much the same way. Today, you can read Volume 1, Issue 1 on the Stories by Laura page or by clicking here.

 

Many communities around the United States and abroad are coming together in-person and virtually honor victims of filicide. If you are interested in recognizing the Disability Day of Mourning, check out one of the websites below:
