Being autistic means experiencing the world in your own way.
Sometimes the modern world isn't well designed for autistic people, and how we experience things differently. This friendly, illustrated book is packed with simple ideas to help with everyday autistic life, like big feelings, busy senses, school days, meltdowns, and changes to your routine.
There's no "right" or "wrong" way to be autistic, and this book isn't about changing who you are.
It's about figuring out what helps you feel calmer, more confident, and more in control.

Press Reviews
Eliza Fricker, neurodivergent illustrator and author of Can't Not Won't
A wonderfully accessible and compassionate book, filled with engaging illustrations that make complex ideas easy to understand. An essential resource for young autistic people and the parents, carers, and professionals supporting them to understand sensory differences.
Davida Hartman, Adjunct Professor, Clinical Director, Principal Psychologist The Children's Clinic and The Adult Autism & ADHD Practice
Another outstanding book from Niamh Garvey. Phenomenally helpful, practical, and wonderfully accessible, it's packed with real-world strategies that will genuinely support and educate Autistic children, their parents and those who love them. I'll be recommending it everywhere, it's an absolute must buy and now at the top of my book recommendation list!
