Reviews
Dr. Chapman has created a space to ask: Are we doing enough? Are we really helping? This book reminds us to see each child as a whole person, not just data or an end goal. It invites honest conversations about connection, belonging, and what’s truly best for students. When kids feel valued, they grow. Every educator should read this. -- Donna Jenkins, Teacher, Deming NM. This book dares us to imagine what education could be if we truly centered children, families, and relationships. Through the lens of the superhero, it reveals how we can move beyond outdated systems and build something radically better, more human, more just, and more responsive. For those ready to shape the future of education, this is your invitation. -- Tara C. Raines, PhD, Deputy Director, Children’s Advocacy Alliance (Nevada). I truly wish I’d had access to this book during my career. It highlights the challenges teachers and administrators face every day, and the impact of the choices we make. This book is a valuable resource and belongs in every classroom, giving educators practical, essential tools to better support students with special education needs. -- Dr. Marvene Lobato, Retired Superintendent, Fowler Elementary School District, Phoenix, Arizona. Parents and educators both agree that special education practices and student supports of the past are not working for students with complex social, emotional, and cognitive needs in classrooms today. Special Education Superheroes delivers real stories of students, teachers, and parents working together to create effective strategies helping to facilitate success socially and academically in the school environment. Superheroes is an enjoyable and easy read that makes the serious subject of special education relatable and interesting to all stakeholders. -- Paige Engelson, Coordinator for Compliance & Professional Development, (Arizona).
