Your Treasure Hunt: Disabilities and Finding Your Gold

Here’s a warm and honest portrayal of the treasure hunt of getting through life for young children with disabilities to enjoy with an adult. All children face obstacles on their lives’ treasure hunts. However, there are difficulties for children with disabilities that other children don’t experience (such as working extra hard on normal tasks, being teased, and gaining the courage to ask for help). Constructive ways of dealing with the frustrating parts of having a disability are featured in this book, as well as techniques for building a positive self image. This book emphasizes that all children can find both small and big treasures on their lives’ treasure hunts. A resources section gives suggested books and websites for parents and caregivers.
