Crafts for the Disabled
Gault and Sykes
1979
Submitter: This book is horribly dated, with black and white photographs and illustrations. I don’t think these crafts are particularly accessible for persons with disabilities, either. There are many more current craft books available, as well as numerous web pages with suggestions for adapting crafts to different ability levels.
Holly: This title reminds me of this old post, which is actually one of our most popular posts ever. Craft books with adaptations are a wonderful idea for public libraries, but something written in this decade, let alone this millennium, would be best. Pinterest is a good resource for this type of thing if you can’t find more current books. In fact, Pinterest is probably even better because you can specify the disability.
At least the terminology isn’t as offensive as I thought it would be?
