Resumen
Designed as a book for educators that challenges how dis/abilities are portrayed in novels and short stories, Patricia A. Dunn?s Disabling Characters: Representations of Disability in Young Adult Literature offers an assessment of 14 stories for youth, some of which have been incorporated into middle and high school English curricula for over the past 30 years. Though this book is particularly useful for teachers, it also provides an accessible entry into the academic discipline of Disability Studies.
