My Mixed Up, Jumbled Shook Up Brain: Eight Stories About Neurodiversity, Big Feelings, and Sensory Overload

My brain wakes up before the rest of me. Way before.One kid. One very busy brain. Eight stories told from the inside - a morning where the brain is up at four ranking dinosaurs while the body remains a pile of blankets, a math lesson that loses out to a slow-moving rectangle of light, a fact about flamingos that escapes at exactly the wrong moment, a cafeteria that is all sound, an afternoon that vanishes into drawing a space cat, and the flat gray days when nothing happens at all. And one flat, sun-warm rock by a stream, where things get a little quieter.These stories don't diagnose, explain, or fix anyone. There are no lessons and no lectures - just one funny, precise, deeply relatable voice describing what it's actually like in there. Kids who think differently will recognize themselves on the first page. The people who love them will understand them a little better by the last.Written for ages 6-8 and perfect for reading aloud, with warm illustrations and a clean, generously spaced layout that's easy on developing readers. For parents, teachers, counselors, and - most of all - for the kids with a lot going on upstairs.Some brains work like this. This book is for them.
