Forty adult perspectives on growing up with disability

Edited by Stanley D. Klein, this collection centers the firsthand accounts of forty adults reflecting on childhood and life with disability. The essays span experiences connected to cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, autism, learning disabilities, deafness, blindness, mental illness, developmental disabilities, and spina bifida. Framed around what these contributors want parents to understand, the book brings together a range of perspectives rather than presenting disability as a single, uniform experience. Its essay format allows the subject to be approached through individual lives and reflections.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Parents seeking firsthand perspectives from adults with disabilities
  • Families of children with special needs
  • Readers interested in disability experiences and advocacy
