Editorial Reviews

What an amazing book! This heartwarming story gives a glimpse into the experiences of families who have children with autism and other neurodiverse traits. Ella shares her perspective on doing all sorts of activities with her autistic twin, Asher, and how their family sees the intrinsic beauty in how both children learn and explore. Told in a simple, and cleverly illustrated way, kids will learn from Ella about why their friends sometimes do things differently, but how they can still have fun doing them together. I especially loved the page at the end that further explained some of the illustrations for children to have additional context on autism and sensory processing. I'm buying a copy for all my friends with kids!
