Identity, illustrator: Deaf

Elsie can't wait for her first daddy-daughter dance but will the snow put a damper on her fun?

A suspenseful plot with adorable daddy-daughter bonding and inviting digital illustrations make this incredibly appealing to older preschoolers through 2nd grade. Elsie's disability is not discussed or examined through the text; instead, her use of a wheelchair, her nonverbal interaction through her communication board, and her feeding tube are visually incorporated throughout the book. Baby Bookworm has an excellent review of this book and all its positive qualities.

A charming and essential addition to the picture book shelves.
