My students are children with autism and down syndrome. Many have been in the same classroom with the same books for four years, reading the same titles. They need a variety of genres to spark their interest.

The new books would also allow families to spend time together and enjoy fiction and nonfiction stories. Many students have younger siblings who would also enjoy being read to.
