A delightful, much-needed book about something thats much under-recognised. Full of warmth, humour and hope, A Trip Into A Dyspraxic Persons World is an essential read for young dyspraxics who are looking to understand themselves better. Or for older dyspraxics who wish theyd had this kind of understanding when they were young. -Maxine Roper, Author of No Heels No Problem: A Neurodivergent Survival Guide to Adult Life When You’re Dyspraxic or ADHD
A Trip into A Dyspraxic Persons World is an unapologetic glimpse into what it truly means to live with a dyspraxic mind, while navigating an often-inaccessible world that does not fully understand dyspraxia. Through Lotte ONeils engaging animation style and methods of explaining dyspraxia, the symptoms of dyspraxia feel easy for even the most unfamiliar reader to understand what its really like. Thats exactly what we need at this very moment, when neurodivergence is still under supported and misunderstood despite having an increasing amount of mainstream representation. -Rosemary Richings, author Of Stumbling Through Space and Time: Living Life with Dyspraxia.
