Try to make yourself round and you're just a misshapen circle. Embrace the beauty that is your true self and you will truly shine. A wonderful, must-read book for every child to help understand and embrace their authentic self, no matter what shape they are." Associate Professor Josephine Barbaro Child Psychologist and Researcher "A super valuable text for all kids. This book should be in every classroom, library and clinic." "I rarely come across great resources that are aimed at slightly older neurodivergent kids- with relatable and easily accessible language and themes- one step up from a picture book. All clinicians should have this book. Older primary teachers should use it with their classes. Parents with neurodivergent kids 7+ should give it a read with their kids. Every library needs a copy. It's a collection of short stories about an AuDHD life. The illustrations are from Eliza Fricker, another great advocate. There are discussion guides in the back."
