I wish there was a book like this for when I was growing up - but there wasn’t, so we decided to create one for our teen ladybugs. It’s been cathartic to see how far and wide it has reached in the world. Xx Katie #autisticteen #yellowladybugs #actuallyautistic #autism #neurodivergent #proudauthor

It’s important to remember that our brains and bodies are built to protect us when we feel threatened. However, for many of us ladybugs, this system can be extra sensitive and may respond in different ways, shaped by how we experience the world or the stress we’ve encountered over the years #autism
