Publisher's Synopsis

'I definitely feel better about myself, about being me, after reading this book.' - 11-year-old reader, Toppsta

Discover how scientific concepts can help you navigate everyday human interactions, and grow up to be your HAPPIEST YOU!

As a child, Camilla loved patterns and putting things in order. She was obsessed with Stephen Hawking, and the only language she really understood was science. Diagnosed with autism aged 8, Camilla saw the world very differently.

But with science as her sidekick, she was able to translate ideas she could understand, such as photosynthesis and algorithms, onto things she couldn't, such as dealing with emotions and finding your voice.

In this unique and brilliant book, Camilla shares her scientific survival guide to growing up, helping neurodiverse young readers navigate the world around them, giving them the courage to grow up perfectly happy in who they are.
