31 for 21 Books about Down Syndrome

This is the last week of Down Syndrome Awareness month and winding down of the 31 for 21 blog challenge.  The Internet is one of the resources that new parents and families turn to when they need information.  One of my favorite places to go to look for relevant books is Amazon.  I wish I had the time to wander libraries or book stores, but realistically I don't have time.  I love shopping Amazon and I have found lots of great books about Down Syndrome on Amazon.  Here is a partial list of the books found on Amazon about Down Syndrome.  I have many of these books in our personal home library.
