Some Brains: A Book Celebrating Neurodiversity
Nelly Thomas, Illustrated by Cat MacInnes
This uplifting and inclusive picture book celebrates neurodiversity in all its forms. It explains that brains work in different ways—some are fast, some are slow, some love music, some love maths—and that all brains are valid, valuable, and worthy of love and respect.
Why It’s Included
This book affirms neurodivergent children in a joyful, matter-of-fact way. It reflects our philosophy of embracing difference and promoting acceptance without pathologising. It’s an ideal resource for normalising neurodivergence in both home and educational settings.
Who It’s For
Perfect for children aged 4 to 10, and essential reading for families, classrooms, and anyone working with children. Whether your child is autistic, ADHD, gifted, learning delayed, or simply curious, this book makes it clear: all brains are welcome here.
