It is an excellent tool to help children understand both themselves and their peers. The language is clear and positive, complemented by colourful illustrations to show how no two brains are the same and that all brains should be celebrated.\u003cbr\u003eIt's full of facts and figures as well as brief biographies of some well known neurodiverse personalities. It covers all different aspects of neurodiversity from dyslexia to ADHD. There are some self help pages on brain care and next steps as well as a very useful glossary to help decode some of the complex vocabulary. As ever with DK, it is a great book which is incredibly helpful for both home and school.\u003c\/p\u003e -- Tash Hyde * Read for Good *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo brain in the world is exactly the same as another, and they all function in their own special ways.\u003cbr\u003eDivided into four sections: \u003ci\u003eWonderfully working brains\u003c\/i\u003e, which explains how brains work and which bit does what; \u003ci\u003eWonderfully diverse brains\u003c\/i\u003e, which explains a variety of neurodiverse conditions such as ADHD, autism, dyscalculia, synaesthesia, OCD, tics, dyslexia and many more; \u003ci\u003eWonderfully wired history\u003c\/i\u003e, which shows the timeline of neurodiversity awareness and showcases some brilliant brains from history; and the final section, \u003ci\u003eWonderfully wired people\u003c\/i\u003e, which tells readers about a selection of modern-day neurodiverse writers, YouTubers, composers, coders and TV personalities.\u003cbr\u003eThere's also a useful appendix of words and brain terminology at the back of the book, with a note from Louise to young readers that acknowledges the uniqueness of everyone's brain and their journey in life. Readers are reminded that when they have questions about themselves or about any topics in the book, they should ask an adult - and that there's so much more to learn about how our brains work.\u003cbr\u003eLouise Gooding, herself a neurodiverse creator, has ADHD, and this authenticity of experience shines through in her writing. This is a welcoming and down to earth look at neurodiversity for mid to older primary aged children, and a tremendously useful resource that sadly has been all too lacking until now. Highly recommended for all.\u003c\/p\u003e * Booktrust *","brand":"Dorling Kindersley Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48733242327383,"sku":"9780241568163","price":11.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780241568163.jpg?v=1719999744","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/wonderfully-wired-brains-9780241568163","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
