As a SPED teacher, I'm always on the look out for children's books about disabilities.This book is not an 'insider' account of MR; it is from the parent's perspective. As the book refers to consideration of abortion, it would be highly inappropriate for a person with MR.Shame. I've found great children's books on every type of disability, except MR.
