If you are looking
for books that would be appropriate for your
classroom library for your students, or your
school's special needs collection, you might want
to check out the descriptions of these books, which
are just a sampling of what's out there on the
market. You can supplement this list by doing your
own search with online booksellers and by
downloading a copy of the handout on children with
disabilities prepared by the NICHCY, available in
the Miscellaneous
