Understanding Abilities: Hazelnut's Guide for Kids: Answering your children's questions about special needs and disabilities (Hazelnut Books)

By Julia Erman

Have you ever wondered how to talk to your children about others with disabilities or special needs? If so, you've come to the right place. As parents and educators, we often find ourselves unsure of the right words to say. But don't worry, I'm here to help! This book will guide you through the questions your child may ask and provide you with the best ways to answer them. By the time you finish reading it, you'll feel more confident in approaching the topic of special needs and disabilities with your children. You'll also gain a deeper understanding of why children like Hazelnut have these challenges and how you, as a parent or educator, can foster compassion in your children when they interact with individuals facing such difficulties. All proceeds go to support The Hazelnut Movement where we share stories, encourage questions and inspire compassion for special needs and disability. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Julia is a wife, mother, coach, and inspiration to many. She's always had a natural talent when working with kids, but since becoming Hazel's mom, Julia's passion has turned to educating children about other children with developmental delays and special needs. The purpose of Julia's books are to teach children and their parents how to start a conversation with, and how to connect with, those who have special needs. Julia believes talking about these topics sparks the beginning of awareness and true compassion for others.

Every one of us is extra special, and Hazelnut is not exempt. FOLLOW ALONG ON INSTAGRAM @TheHazelnutMovement
