Little Bill features a friend who is in a wheelchair on some episodes. Here are a few books I found: Zonder Kids: Jake's New Friend; In Jesse's Shoes by Beverley Lewis (for teaching others kids how to accept special needs kids); Happy Day Books, Level 3:God made our Bodies
Right under my nose is a wonderful book that I was given at the hospital. It is specifically about a little boy who has Spina Bifida. I read it yesterday actually for the first time and just cried; because of how great they put the aspects of surgery, wheelchairs, braces, even catheters and diapers. It also has activity pages, and a parent's guide on how to talk with your child.
I know of a couple other books also. One is Rolling Along with Goldilocks and the Three Bears. This is the basic story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears but the little bear is in a wheelchair and is off doing PT when she comes. Very cute for younger children. Also there is a book I got from Shriners, and I believe that the SBAA offers it also, Another Way to Go, about a little boy who has SB and caths. We also have a book called Some Kids Use Wheelchairs and a book called Some Kids Wear Leg Braces. Hope this helps! I am sure I can dig out the books if you want the authors names.
