ABC's of FASD

By Helen Simpson

ABC's of FASD is a heartfelt and empowering children's book that introduces young readers to the world of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) through the voice of Edme, a middle schooler living with the condition. With warmth, honesty, and courage, Edme takes readers on an alphabet journey-each letter highlighting a word that connects to life with FASD, such as A for Accommodations, B for Bravery, C for Creativity, and Z for Zero alcohol in pregnancy.

Along the way, Edme shares personal experiences about challenges, strengths, friendships, and the importance of support and self-advocacy. Through stories of resilience, determination, and joy, the book helps children understand that while living with FASD can bring struggles, it also comes with unique gifts, creativity, and extraordinary potential.

Written with compassion and authenticity, this book is not only a tool for education but also a source of comfort and encouragement. It reminds kids with FASD-and those who love and support them-that they are not alone, that their voices matter, and that every child is worthy of celebration.

Perfect for classrooms, families, and support groups, ABC's of FASD is both an educational resource and an inspiring reminder that differences make us unique, and every child has the power to shine.
