"Goes to the heart of autism and offers an inclusive and authentic story that brings the reader into the experience of autism and the lives of these children.." * Reading Time - Children's Book Council of Australia * "We want autistic kids who read the book to be validated and see themselves in the story, and for non-autistic kids to perhaps understand the experience of being autistic a little better." * ABC Canberra Mornings Radio * "This is a great way to raise awareness for young students. They may be more considerate when realising many issues can be difficult for other kids. Not all children are alike and while most kids understand this, they may not realise what a burden it is for the affected child.." * Blue Wolf Reviews * "This book seeks to normalize the experience of autistic children. In making them heroes, there is insight into their perspectives and personal experiences which is fun and engaging. This is a story which is sure to resonate with many young readers in the 8-12 age group." * Buzz Words Magazine * "Where are the books for younger readers that openly celebrate neurodiversity?
There are none, right? Wrong.

It's an immersive reading experience, one that helps build understanding and empathy.." * Kids' Book Review * "Some Families Change tenderly guides children through various evolving family models with gentle verse and inclusive imagery.
