My Friend Has Down Syndrome --- Baleigh Means

Baleigh Means
My Friend Has Down Syndrome
Jennifer Moore-Mallinos
6-9 years
I chose this book because I have read it before now and really love the perspective it provides children on how to interact with a person who has Down Syndrome.

In the story there is a child with Down Syndrome and a child without. It explores the questions and confusions that most children might have when meeting someone with Down Syndrome for the first time. The child learns that they are simply both children who are good at different things and we should love everyone no matter how they might be different from us.
