Beskrivning

From the award-winning creators of Come Over to My House comes this light-hearted picture book about accessibility and disability, and two kids who are inspired to build a better world.Carla and Sam want to play together, but there’s nowhere in their neighbourhood that’s accessible to them both! That is, until Carla and Sam put their heads together to dream up a place where all kids can play together, and a wonderful new space is born. This fun, child-centred romp through a local neighbourhood belies a powerful picture book about accessibility, and what it truly means to be disabled. With Sally Rippin’s characteristic lightness of touch and Eliza Hull’s depth of knowledge, this appealing story demonstrates the social model of disability; namely, that people are disabled not by their own bodies, but by their environments. It’s a powerful lens through which to talk about and understand why accessibility is an issue for everyone.Accolades for Come Over to My House:★ WINNER of the DANZ Award for Picture Books (Diversity in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand)★ WINNER of ‘Best Conversation Starter’ category in the 2023 Bookstagang Picture Book Awards ★ SHORTLISTED as a Children's Book Council of Australia (CBCA) Notable Book for Early Childhood★ SHORTLISTED for the Panda Book Awards★ SHORTLISTED for the Speech Pathology Australia 2023 Book of the Year Awards★ Best Picture Book of the Year (2022) as voted by Readings Staff
