Disability Visibility (Adapted for Young Adults) 17 First-Person Stories for Today by Alice Wong is a powerful collection of essays that showcase the diverse experiences of disabled young people. Written by individuals with lived experience, these seventeen essays offer a unique perspective on life with a disability, exploring themes of ableism, inequality, and the complexities of disability culture.

This collection is a valuable resource for anyone looking to understand and appreciate the diversity of the disability experience. By sharing their wisdom, passion, and joy, the authors of Disability Visibility invite readers to think differently about disability and its place in society.
