Creating a world where every child with a disability sees themselves as the hero of their own story!
Our mission is to nurture a love of reading in young children with disabilities by providing free, inclusive books that reflect their unique experiences. We believe every child deserves to see themselves represented in the stories they read. Through characters who share their challenges and strengths, we aim to foster belonging, build confidence, and spark imagination—because every child’s story matters.
The Opportunity
We live in a world where certain characteristics are highlighted and if a child doesn't meet that, they can be looked at as "less than" or lacking in some way. The truth is that our world is made of many beautifully diverse people. The goal is to have all children feel represented in literature in an effort
to make them, and
their families, feel
more accepted.
Our Response
Our goal is to have all children feel represented in literature in an effort to make them, and their families, feel more accepted. We are doing this by giving children the access and ability to see themselves represented in the books they read. Helping them feel included and show them they are not alone in their experiences.
The Impact
Like Me Library is impacting families by giving them easy access to books where their child in uniquely represented. With our extensive library we have the ability to represent more than 18 unique differences for these children.
We are helping children one family at a time feel represented in literature!
Children need to see themselves in the books they read — not just to feel included, but to understand they are not alone in their experiences.
