Overview
Celebrating Our Differences
Ten illustrated stories about a school full of squirrels from around the world, each with a different kind of brain, introducing children to autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other forms of neurodiversity.
Colorful Brain Friends introduces young readers to the world of neurodiversity through several endearing characters who just happen to be squirrels. Through storytelling and emotionally resonant illustrations, the book creates a safe and engaging space for conversations about inclusion and diversity.
Each character embodies different neurodivergent traits, such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and synesthesia, among others--portrayed not as deficits, but as vibrant possibilities. It aims to foster understanding, empathy, and respect for neurological differences.
The author's autistic son inspired her to write this book. It is her hope that Colorful Brain Friends will help children everywhere to embrace and celebrate their unique abilities.
