World Down Syndrome Day!

March 21, 2018 is World Down Syndrome Day! It is also the release day of a very special book, Down on the Farm by Dawn Alsept, which features photographs of children with Down Syndrome. Dawn is an advocate, mommy, writer, and former Ohio social worker and has worked for the Department of Job and Family Services as a professional development trainer. She is one of us and we would love to help promote this 5 star children's book! 

As teachers, practitioners, and family members, we must advocate for inclusion and celebrate what makes each child different and unique. Therefore, consider the books that you have in your library, are all the children represented? Children want to see themselves in the books they browse! This is a beautiful addition to your classroom or home libraries! 

Please take a moment and check out the trailer below and head on over to Amazon to get your copy today! To learn more about Dawn and her mission, please visit her award winning blog and follow her by liking her page on Facebook!
