This edited collection explores the intersectionality of childhood and disability. Whereas
available scholarship tends to concentrate on care-giving parenting or supporting and
teaching children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities the
contributors to this collection offer an engaging and accessible insight into childhoods that
are impacted by disability and impairment. The discussions cut across traditional disciplinary
divides and offer critical insights into the key issues that relate to disabled children and
young people's lives encouraging the exploration of both disability and childhoods in their
broadest terms. Dis abled Childhoods? will be of interest to students and scholars across a
range of disciplines including Special Educational Needs Childhood Studies Disability Studies
Youth Studies and Health and Social Care.
