Nine books by Disabled writers
It’s Disability Day!
Here is my annual book stack to celebrate Disabled writers! This stack features memoir, middle grade fiction, a handbook and graphic novels.
Go find these at your bookstore or library. Some are available in multiple accessible formats – paperback/hardcover, ebook and audio. Most of the authors are tagged on Instagram, too – so give them a follow!
