Aunt Katie's Visit is ideal for starting a conversation about disabilities. Children can begin to understand why Grandpa Joe doesn't move as fast as he used to, how deaf people communicate and why some people learn at a slower rate than others.

Parents can tailor expanded discussion to meet a specific disability situation in their household, family or neighborhood.

Teachers can have an added disability resource for their classrooms and use this book as a basis to develop their own disability awareness programs.

Children Will:
• Appreciate differences and understand that making fun of others is not the best thing to do.
• Discover how a woman on wheels brushes her teeth and eats her veggies.
• Develop realistic attitudes towards people with disabilities.
