Our Books

When Jo, Vera, and Mary started creating children’s books they set up these guidelines:
The stories would be true and photographed so they were easy to understand and children with disabilities could see themselves.

All titles would include the word ‘want’ to show that children with disabilities are just like other children; wanting what they feel is important, not just what others decide for them.

The book design would highlight the child in the book and make it even more meaningful. This would include large print to make it easily read by all children.

    Curriculm

    "These new curriculum materials are such a great supplement to the Finding My Way Books. The exercises are meaningful, the activities are student-centered, and, perhaps most importantly, all of the suggested conversations and lessons are focused on inclusivity and belonging!"

    Finding My Way Inclusive

    SEL Curriculum: K-3 


    Research has determined that expanded social, emotional learning (SEL) enhances academic achievement. As a literature-based study, this curriculum compliments SEL skill development by deepening students’ understanding and acceptance of themselves through exposure to life experiences of individuals with disabilities living in their communities. Discussions and activities build student capacity in self-awareness as defined by CASEL.

    Finding My Story

    Afterschool Program: K-1


    The Finding My Story program challenges students to think about diversity. Using multidisciplinary activities, it also provides an opportunity for students to discover their own story.


    “All in all, Finding My Story is an excellent program. One of my favorite parts about this program is how versatile it is since it is planned around six different books. All the students were very excited about the books, loved the characters and the activities.” Kendra Allen, LMSW/Unit Director Boys & Girls Club
