From Disability to Possibility: The Power of Inclusive Classrooms

Very informative book that includes facts and statistics in the beginning, but also many stories that provide real world experiences and applications that can be used in the classroom setting. Challenges reader's thinking and opinions on inclusive classroom settings and abilities that diverse learners have. The author provides a great basis for teaching, showing how "education must become more multifaceted and dynamic if it is to work for everyone." Great resource for teachers, future teachers, and parents on information about opportunities available for students with disabilities.Easy read and well organized book.

Although there are some poignant remarks (that are more often than not highlighted in side bars), most of this book is anecdotes from the author's career. If you like reading things like that, this book is for you. I, however, read the intros to each chapter and skipped the plethora of "case studies" that became rather repetitive.

A wonderful, easy and inspirational read!

Like his other book (from Possibilities to success), this book gives excellent advice and strategies for parents and teachers. Many issues that seem complex have been demystified in a readable way with multiple examples. Well worth getting.Robert Jackson Ph.D

Book arrived earlier than expected which was a must for me. Timeliness is important.

This book is easy to read. It is timely. I have handed the book out to our Board of Education members and Principals of the teachers in our District. I encourage parents of special needs children to read. It is an empowering book for teachers, administrators and parents. Inclusion is possible! I love the enthusiasm of the author through out the book.

A book I had to read in college but one I decided to keep. Tiny book though.

A textbook I actually use outside of class!!

This is a great book for someone who is new to inclusive practices and very affirming to someone who is not. This book is more about the "why" of inclusive practices rather than the "how'. For that reason, the second book entitled "Your Welcome", 30 Innovative Ideas for the Inclusive Classroom" is a perfect compliment. Both books are a quick read.
