Neurodivergent Affirming Books

Written By Lia Douglas

I have compiled a small list of neurodivergent affirming books to read to your child, children or a class. These books feature an array of differences such as ADHD, Autism, Sensory Processing differences, and general disability. I am passionate about making this world a more inclusive space and we can start by teaching our children to be aware and accepting of differences. I believe there is no “right way” to process information, learn, think and simply BE. Let’s all work together to end stereotypes and stigmas!
