Raamat "Minu harukordne aju" tutvustab kooliealistele lastele neuroerilisust ja aitab mõista, et iga inimene on ainulaadne ja väärtuslik.Autor Louise Gooding on raamatu "Minu harukordne aju" jaotanud tinglikult kolmeks. Et teemat paremini mõista, selgitab ta esmalt, mis üldse on inimaju ja kuidas erinevad ajuosad toimivad ning meid mõjutavad. Samuti seda, milliste teadmisteni on aju uurimine tänaseks jõudnud. Raamatu kõige mahukama osa eesmärk on selgitada, mida tähendab neuroeriline aju ja kuidas see inimest ning tema elu mõjutab. Pikemalt on lahti kirjutatud 16 erinevat diagnoosi, sh näiteks autism, ärevushäire, ATH, düsleksia, OKH, bipolaarne häire, epilepsia jne. Seejuures peab autor väga oluliseks rõhutada, et neuroerilisus pole mitte puudus, vaid ainulaadsus. Seepärast on raamatu kolmas osa keskendunud neuroerilistele inimestele, kes nii ajaloos kui tänapäeval on tänu oma aju eripärale saavutanud edu ja leidnud koha maailmas.Raamatu autor Louise Gooding on neuroeriline kirjanik - tal on diagnoositud ATH. Tema isiklik kogemus inspireeris teda neuroloogilise mitmekesisuse ja erivajaduste eest kõnelema. Selle raamatu saateks on ta öelnud: "Ma kirjutasin selle raamatu teadmisjanustele ja asjahuvilistele, kellel on harukordne aju. Neile, kes tunnevad, et on üksi. Neile, kes soovivad rohkem teada. Neile, kes tahavad ajude mitmekesisusele austust avaldada. Ma tahan näidata, kui erinevad ja sarnased me kõik oleme."

Following the success of Wonderfully Wired Brains and Minna's Masks, Davey's Daydreams introduces a little boy with a vivid imagination. His daydreams aren't just flights of fancy; they are a key part of how he processes the world. This heartwarming story celebrates these daydreams, showing that they should be embraced as a unique and creative way of being. This narrative gently introduces daydreaming as a common trait in many neurodiverse children, indicating how it can be both a challenge and a strength. The story highlights how understanding and a channel for expression can help a child feel seen and appreciated for their unique mind. It's a validation for children who feel misunderstood because of their "fidgety" or "distracted" behaviour, and a resource for parents and educators. This book reframes daydreaming from a negative symptom into a creative outlet, and it encourages children to embrace their way of thinking, teaching others to appreciate the value of imagination.
