One of my favourite parts of my job, and arguably one of the most important, is helping the kids that I work with and their family/friends to understand neurodiversity. It is hugely beneficial for kids to have a name for their diagnosis and an understanding of how it impacts them day-to-day. It is equally important for siblings and friends to understand these differences so that they can be as supportive and accepting as possible. This list is a series of books to help children understand a range of neurodivergent diagnosis, both in themselves and others.
I recommend keeping these around on the shelf to re-read (or listen to) again and again, for anyone who has felt the call to make something. Inspiring, interesting, informative, and worthwhile all about art, design, creativity, and life in general.
