I Am Autistic: A Workbook - by Chanelle Moriah (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

In this first-ever creative autism guide, author and illustrator Chanelle Moriah offers an interactive autism tool for both formally diagnosed autistics and self-diagnosed autistics to explain or make sense of their experiences. It also offers neurotypical allies the chance to learn more about autism from someone who is actually autistic.

Packed with full-color illustrations, sensory-friendly features, and journaling pages for self-reflection, this book is designed to be customized to the individual's experience. I Am Autistic helps people feel less alone in their autism journey and brings awareness to an often-misunderstood neurodivergent condition.

About the Author

They are passionate about creating spaces of understanding to allow the freedom of individual expression. As a late-diagnosed ADHDer, with other related conditions and forms of neurodivergence, they are particularly passionate about bringing awareness to the different ways in which neurodivergence can present, and the importance of being able to live your life accordingly.

They hope that by sharing their life and experiences, and helping others to understand, they are reducing the harm and trauma (even if only for one person) that neurodivergent individuals face in existing in a neurotypical world.

Chanelle lives in Wellington, New Zealand, and enjoys bubble tea, lego, and sitting in the rain.
