Description
We Move Together is a plain-language picture book (with an accompanying video and learning guide) about a group of children with mixed abilities navigating the world. The content focuses on barriers to accessibility, cross-disability solidarity, advocacy, and interdependence; it also foregrounds disability justice, community, and activism.
Recommendations
The strengths of this resource are:
- the plain language
- the learning guide, historical information, and vocabulary are all of high quality
- accessible activities, discussion guides, and talking points
- engagement with and representation of intersectional identities and perspectives
Users should note that:
- the resource is not yet available in non-English languages
We think these things could help:
- a learning guide PDF that works for screen readers and is available in multiple languages
- learning objectives at the beginning of the learning guide, listed under each theme
