Some disabilities are visible while others are less apparent, but all are underrepresented in media and popular culture. Fortunately, there are a wealth of stories out there just waiting to be heard. This collection includes non-fiction highlighting the lives of trailblazers, first-person memoirs, and fiction exploring characters with disabilities—all helping to stamp out ableism and tell the full story of the human experience from all perspectives, backgrounds and abilities. Our libraries are chock-full of such stories, and this collection includes many of our favourites that give voice to people living with disability. —The Audible Editors
