Every day on this site, it& #39;s lists and bundles and collections of books that are being called inclusive and for every child.
Usually with no positive disability books! Your lists are all abled!
I& #39;m almost a year in and still being asked why I write what I do.
It& #39;s exhausting.

I hate harping on about this. Every time I do, the old guard of the industry rolls their eyes & I alienate myself even more.
But I see kids like me during my schools visits. And they write to me.
I& #39;m not going to be complicit in doing to them what was done before.
It& #39;s enough

"Here kids: have some books where you& #39;re the freak show side character and the main character has to learn to tolerate you. Isn& #39;t that inclusive? Don& #39;t you feel better?"
No. Not really, no.
No. Not really, no.
