An increasing number of Australian children are being diagnosed with variations in their brain development. These can include attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism and dyslexia. Authors Madonna King and Rebecca Sparrow have surveyed and interviewed almost 2000 Australians, including medical experts, educators, neurodivergent children and their parents, to gather together the best and most useful advice to ensure neurodivergent (ND) children take their rightful place in classrooms and workplaces.

Out of the Box offers best-practice advice on diagnosis, navigating ongoing challenges, such as fitting in with friend groups, discipline and learning at school. It also provides vital advice for teens, including driving, living independently and applying for jobs.

For social, family and educational settings, where there is still not enough understanding, and certainly not enough support for ND kids, this essential guide offers hope, insight and practical help.

Includes downloadable resources for parents, educators, and ND kids and teens.
