"Interest in disability studies is also growing, in literature, film, art, politics and religion.This collection of new essays fills a gap in scholarship between teachers and YAL scholars. The contributors offer textual analysis, best practices and numerous examples that enable teachers to expose students to dynamic characters who both reflect and contrast the reader's reality"--
