"Owen's new teacher has a peculiarity: he performs stunts in his wheelchair and teaches new lessons to his students. But can he make Owen like going to school?"Owen is the title of one of the books in the Inclusive Stories collection written for boys and girls. These stories are intended to contribute to the construction of a more supportive and inclusive society from the earliest childhood by addressing the reality of people with disabilities from a positive, appropriate and naturalizing perspective. Its protagonists are boys and girls who manage to overcome challenges of their age thanks to the intervention of a person with a disability. In this way, each story focuses on the potential and not on the limitations that disability may bring."Owen", like the other stories in this collection, is a valuable resource for the good formation of the little ones at school and at home. At the end of the story, a didactic section is included that invites reflection and positive dialogue on the subject. In the author's words: "Inclusion is possible when we value the reality of people with disabilities and integrate them without further ado to all cultural expressions from the earliest childhood."
