Jon Roberts

Jon Roberts, based in Swansea, writes to celebrate neurodiversity, inspired by his daughter Kya, who has severe autism. His debut, Through the Eyes of Me (2017), offers an autistic child's unique view, followed by Through the Eyes of Us (2019), which explores friendship between neurodiverse children.

He broadened his scope with See What I Can Do!, an inclusive book about children with various differences, from autism to dyslexia. His latest works are the adventurous Lilly & Myles: The Torch and Lilly & Myles: The Match.

Jon's mission is to use engaging storytelling to build empathy and promote a more understanding and inclusive world for all children.
