The ABCs of Inclusion: A Disability Inclusion Book for Kids | An(Other) World Book Club

This newly-illustrated edition of a bestseller provides the perfect learning opportunity to introduce the concept of disabilities and other differences to kids--from the beloved family behind Beth & Coop.

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.

An(Other) World Book Club in partnership with Masterworks

Long Story Short created reading lists to complement ‘(An)other World’, an exhibit at Masterworks Museum of Bermuda Art that ‘positions the island and its artists not as passive subjects but as active contributors of cultural authorship, innovation and historical momentum.’  The youth reading list touches on issues of identity and inclusion, and celebrates heritage, art and nature.
