For April and Autism Acceptance Month, our Inclusion Team is sharing a new focused on children’s books about autism.
In this episode, Ignacio Mendoza and Hannah Etchison introduce two titles that can help families start thoughtful, age-appropriate conversations:
📚 “A Friend Like Simon” by Kate Gaynor, illustrated by Caitrìona Sweeney
📚 “A Day with No Words” by Tiffany Hammond, illustrated by Kate Cosgrove
Each story offers a different perspective on communication and connection, giving children a way to better understand their peers.
At Frazer Center, this kind of learning is part of everyday life. Children grow up in classrooms where differences are part of the experience—not something set apart.
We hope these recommendations help build your inclusive home library.
