Summary

An award-winning, authentic perspective on neurodiversity. One boy tries his hardest to do what is expected of him, but his brain just refuses to cooperate. Today it's a Dinosaur! And tomorrow a raging bull. Who knows what might come next? He tries to cope but sinks deeper into despair as his world feels more and more unmanageable. In the midst of a hurricane-brain, his family pulls him back to calmer waters. The boy learns to use his unique moods and mind-sets to their best advantage, stay flexible, and, when in doubt, ask for help. This award-winner gives readers an authentic glimpse into what life can feel like for kids with autism, ADHD, and other neurodivergent traits.
