About Rae's First Day: The First Story In The Capables
Product Description Rae's First Day: The First Story in The Capables Series SYNOPSIS Rae is like many five year olds with one BIG exception: she has a super-secret superpower. Unlike her limb difference, which is visible for all to see, her superpower is something she has never shown anyone before. But it’s her first day of school and her classmates are in need. Will she keep her power to herself…or use it to help her new friends? SERIES OVERVIEW The Capables are a group of super-capable kid superheroes all of whom have a super capability or “cape.” Each Capable’s superpower is activated through empowerment. Created by television producer Danny Jordan––the dad of a child with an upper limb difference–– The Capables is an entertaining, educational, and engaging children’s book series, with a focus on inclusion of disability. Each story in the series aims to accurately and responsibly represent disability. The Capables’ Advisory Board plays a vital role in ensuring the stories, along with the language and illustrations used, are appropriate and support positive progress. THE CAPABLES ADVISORY BOARD Nicole Kelly, Ryan Haddad, Kizzi Barazetti, Jason Schneider, and Mika Jain Learn more about our series at www.thecapables.com Follow us on social media @thecapables Review "Such a great book! Well done. Loved it." -Gwyneth Paltrow "First-day jitters, inclusivity, and an engaging superhero tale all in one." -Kirkus Reviews "My 5-year-old daughter has an upper limb difference and this books means more to us than you can imagine. Seeing herself represented in this special children's book was an important and pivotal moment that she won't soon forget. I'll be forever grateful to the author, the illustrator, and everyone involved in this book's production." -Eric (Parent) "There's something really, really special about THE CAPABLES. We need all of these stories" -Patrick Hinds (Host, True Crime Obsessed Podcast) " THE CAPABLES is for everyone. It's for the children who are THE CAPABLES, the parents and the siblings of the children who are THE CAPABLES, the children who need to learn about THE CAPABLES. It's for everyone is every walk of life." -Carrie Locklyn (Host, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition) From the Author I created The Capables to put children like my daughter in the hero role while encouraging readers to be more inclusive and understanding when it comes to disability. It is my hope that this is just the beginning and that we will be able to educate and empower people all around the world through these stories.
