No Brain the Same: Neurodivergent Young Activists Shaping Our Future
Synopsis
Through powerful poems, this book honours neurodivergent youth activists transforming their communities and invites kids to act-continuing the spirit of No Voice Too Small and No World Too Big.
Featuring Billie Eilish, Dara McAnulty, and Lydia X. Z. Brown, these fourteen poems spotlight neurodivergent activists inspiring kids ages 5 to 9 to make change.
These fourteen neurodivergent activists began their work when they were young and continue it now, changing systems, politics, policies, and more. The book features poems written by poets who have something in common with each activist.
Fourteen poems by CooXooEii Black, Vanessa Brantley-Newton, e.E. Charlton-Trujillo, Liv Mammone, Lyn Miller-Lachmann, K. A.
