Graphic voices around functional diversity: Towards inclusive education from contemporary comics

Abstract

Faced with the distorted image of functional diversity that has been transmitted from children's and young people's literature, the author investigates its representation in contemporary comics as a key space for dialogue with the reader. Through a triad of comics starring female child and youth characters with functional diversity, the researcher emphasizes the eradication of restrictive conceptions of difference as a problem that must be neutralized and delves into the possibilities of the comic for literary and inclusive education and the renewal of the classroom canon.
