I am going to try and start something blog world and i need your help. I am going to try and recommend books on the disability experience. If you have any good books in this category leave a comment and who knows your recommendation may lead to a post on that book now for my first book Accidents of Nature.
Accidents of Nature is such a great book it is about a teenager with CP who goes to a camp for all kinds of kids with disabilities. Set in the summer of 1970 it talks about stereotypes that the disabled community has to face. The characters are well written and their are a lot of things to think about after you put the book down. This is by far one of the best books on disabilities I have ever read
I have really been enjoying Tom Coogan's thesis.
ReplyDeleteIn there he talks about
My left foot by Christy Brown
Under the clock by Christopher Nolan
I raise my eyes to say yes by Ruth Sienciewicz-Miller
and Still me by Christopher Reeve.
The book that you recommended is a good one.
Really wish I could think of some fiction books.
Accidents of Nature IS good. I own it. How about reading Eli the Bipolar Bear or All Cats have Aspergers they are both good books--and short
