Samuel knows the world in ways many people never notice.

He hears the soft sound of footsteps, feels the warmth of the sun on his skin, and recognizes the voices of the people he loves. Samuel is blind, but his understanding of the world is rich with sound, touch, memory, and heart.

Through Samuel's story, children learn that blindness does not mean a person cannot explore, learn, laugh, or belong. Instead, it shows that people experience the world in different and meaningful ways.

Samuel Knows the World by Heart is part of the Fearfully and Wonderfully Made series-stories created to help children understand disabilities with kindness, respect, and empathy.

This gentle and empowering book encourages conversations about inclusion while reminding readers that every child has strengths, values, and a unique way of experiencing the world.

Perfect for:

• classrooms and libraries
• parents and caregivers
• disability awareness lessons
• children learning about empathy and inclusion

Because understanding differences helps build a kinder world for everyone.
