Demystifying Disability is a nonfiction book that gives readers an inside look at the disabled community in the United States. This title, written by Ladau, a notable disability rights activist, would be a great addition to any YA nonfiction collection. The writing felt a little young, but that was okay with me. It is my opinion that the earlier we introduce children to human rights issues directly correlates with higher levels of empathy. My only complaint about this book was that I wish it had focused on the experiences of disabled people outside of the United States as well, as someone's home country and the laws they have in place play a crucial role in their experience as a disabled person.
