Just what it says on the tin, folks. I'm looking for books, generally aimed at the Young Adult market, that feature a character with a disability. You don't have to have read them yourself! I'm going to ask my YA librarian next time I'm in my fancy library downtown, too.

Please link around - I'm going to be dropping this into my various dropping-places over the next few days, too.

Thank you!

ETA:

Feel free to recommend children's books as well. Genre or non-genre is fine. I'm looking for anything here.

Don't worry if the portrayal is bad. Feel free to flag it up, though.

Feel free to plug your own book. If it hasn't been released yet, please leave a release date.

Thank you!
