About this listen

 Based on the research that race, gender, disability, and other important topics should be discussed with toddlers on up, this series offers adults the opportunity to begin important conversations with young children in an informed, safe, and supported way.

Developed by experts in the fields of early childhood and activism, this topic-driven audiobook offers clear, concrete language to introduce the concept of disability. This audiobook celebrates all bodies and abilities, just as they are, and addresses the inequities and opportunities for change in today's world.

While young children are avid observers and questioners of their world, adults often shut down or postpone conversations on complicated topics because it's hard to know where to begin. Research shows that talking about tough issues from the age of two not only helps children understand what they see, but also increases self-awareness, self-esteem, and allows them to recognize and confront things that are unfair, like discrimination and prejudice.

With additional resources and ideas for extending the discussion, these audiobooks offer a supportive approach that considers both the child and the adult. Geography & Cultures Growing Up & Facts of Life
