From leading autistic activists and witty content creators Elora Dodd, star of the popular social media account @online1roomschoolhouse, and educator C. R. R. Hillin comes a vibrant activity book that will guide readers through the challenges of life with autism and help foster pride in being neurodivergent.
Globally an estimated 168 million people have autism, and yet resources for the community designed by those who truly understand the disorder first-hand are severely lacking. The result is a culture that stereotypes, underdiagnoses, and excludes neurodivergents, leaving them to make do in a hostile environment, and a society that misses out on all that their outside-the-box thinking could contribute.
To combat this, The Actually Autistic Guide has been carefully crafted by autistics for autistics in order to enable community members to conquer daily challenges heads on. Authors Elora Dodd, whose social media account buzzing with anecdotes from her experiences as a neurodivergent has acquired more than seven hundred thousand followers, and her fellow activist C. R. R. Hillin, use their signature humor, creativity, and relatability to provide guidance acquired from their own experiences as well as from members of the #actuallyautistic online community.
The result is a colorful, hands-on volume with:
- Tips and tricks for managing sensory issues, avoiding burnout, communicating with others, and so much more
- Dozens of original illustrations and details to delight and stimulate
- Coloring pages for zoning out or tuning in
- Activities and games
- Fascinating history and insight into the challenges faced by autistics and the progress being made
A perfect book for the neurodivergent mind, The Actually Autistic Guide is offers plenty to focus (and hyperfocus) on. It will allow readers a unique way to absorb content and start you on a journey of self-discovery, knowing that your ability to thrive is limitless.
