There used to be a significant lack of children’s books that addressed children with special needs; however, as time moves forward there is a growing market of these helpful books that both help children with special needs siblings as well as give stories for special needs children to identify with. We’ll Paint the Octopus Red by Stephanie Stuve-Bodeen is a story of a little boy with downs syndrome and addresses questions that older siblings of downs babies may ask. While this little girl’s father is upset about her baby brother’s syndrome she continues to ask questions and find out everything she can to learn more about her new baby brother!
