Sonny Jane Wise

Radical, accepting and kind. This is the neurodiversity paradigm.

The Pocket Guide to Neurodiversity

Daniel Aherne

Illustrated by Tim Stringer

A simple, accessible guide to neurodiversity, unpacking the four main diagnoses of autism, ADHD, dyslexia and dyspraxia. The book also explains some common co-occurring conditions, strengths and difficulties, and concepts such as spiky profiles, executive functioning and working memory.

‘This is a great introduction to the complex world of neurodiversity. Every classroom should have a copy, for both educators to learn the basics from, and young people to begin understand themselves or others. The moments for reflection are going to be crucial for many individuals to think about changing their lives and those of others.’ Charli
