Description
Perfect for back-to-school, this story about Starlin--a multimodal communicator and wheelchair user--pairs inclusivity with humor and fun.
Ready for picture day?
It's picture day at Hillbrook Elementary, and Starlin--a multimodal communicator and wheelchair user--is ready to shine. Last year's school picture was an epic disaster, but she's determined to take a dazzling one this time around. As she boards the bus, however, a storm ruins her brilliant look! Can Starlin improvise and find a new sparkling style in time for her close-up?
Drawing from family experience with disability, Anitra Rowe Schulte brings a chapter book centering the experience of a young girl with disabilities as she wields her creativity when things don't go according to plan. Starlin: Picture Day Drama is filled with imagination, family, and friendship.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC.
This was a really fun book! I love Starlin and her fun personality, and I'm always a fan of disability representation in books. In this one, we not only get Starlin, but also her friends, who are just disabled without it being a thing, which is also always lovely to see because technically, they didn't need to be disabled. The story was very relatable too and focused on Starlin as a girl rather than Starlin as a disabled person, and her wheelchair, hearing aids and AAC board were just... there. Just parts of the story. Very fun!
