Thoughts about Final Project

For my final project I think I am going to focus on physical disabilities or learning disabilities. My reasoning for researching these types of literature is because I feel it is important for people to be aware of the difficulties of these disabled people. Also, my major is in special education - learning disabilities so I obviously have a passion for helping people with disabilities. There is nothing more satisfying then helping a child learn and making them feel loved for who they are and not always focusing on their physical or intellectual difference. After reading the requirements for the final project I was thinking it would be interesting to search different authors to read about their different views and perspectives on disabilities.

It will be interesting to hear whether the books you find focus primarily on the "problems" that PWD face, or whether they are rounder representations.
