Here is a beautiful picture book that encourages the youngest readers to think positively about people with disabilities. Written by Arlene Maguire in easy-to- understand rhyming quatrains, Special People, Special Ways suggests that everyone have something to contribute--to themselves, and to the world. Coupled with Sheila Bailey's rich illustrations, the gentle message of this important new book has been well received by parents, teachers, and librarians. Though meant for an able audience, Special People, Special Ways has therapeutic value for the disabled as well. Truly a book that brings out tolerance and understanding in young people.

Through a special arrangement with Special Olympics, Special People, Special Ways carries a handsome silver seal on its dust jacket, bearing the logo of Special Olympics. Ten per cent of the net proceeds of the sale of Special People, Special Ways are donated to help sponsor this worthy organization.
