Different Like Us! By Margaret Rooke

Wow what an amazing book this was extremely special as the children share such stories that show their strength and resilience at having some serious disabilities but seeing them as an extension of their personality they just get own with as another part of them, fully embracing them as part their unique character. This is the kind of book I wish growing up as a child of the 2000's we'd had, but feel so happy it is a book available now we chat way more openly about disabilities these days. I know many friends and myself living with rare and unheard of conditions that will stay with us for life who could've related to this book extremely so growing up. The maturity the children's own quotes show them to have is a great addition littered throughout the book and their stories too showing their strength of character not letting their conditions define them in any way.
