As an autistic writer who works in childcare, I am so so glad kids have books like this now. I unashamedly sat reading this, white-knuckled with tears on my cheeks because I wish wish wish I had McNicoll’s work as a child. I want to be a similar voice for neurodiverse kids. I want them to feel seen the way I didn’t. Elle McNicoll does it beautifully with intricate, well written stories with characters that are real and needed.
