A new edition of an instant Amazon bestseller in children’s books on disability and the perfect way to introduce the concept of disabilities and other differences to kids—now with brand-new artwork!

In a relatable, positive, and compassionate voice, disability advocate and social media content creator Beth Leipholtz introduces twenty-six real kids with autism, hearing differences, epilepsy, Down syndrome, and more than a dozen other diagnoses. Their stories remind us that people with disabilities are all around us, and all children deserve to be seen, heard, valued, understood, and loved.

Beth Leipholtz is the hearing mother of a deaf child, raising her son, Cooper, bilingually in both hearing and Deaf cultures. On Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, she has built an online community of more than 1 million people to uplift parents on similar journeys and advocate for inclusion and accessibility. Her desire to spread the message of inclusion and connection led to creating a brand-new edition of The ABCs of Inclusion, with all-new artwork and backmatter from a disability advocacy organization.
