Description

When Bobby gets distracted, he starts to float. His friends and family try everything they can to help him stay grounded, but the world is full of bright sights, strong smells, and unexpected sounds that pull his attention in every direction. Bobby wants to concentrate like everyone else, but it isn’t easy – and a string tied around his ankle only makes him feel empty inside.

Soon, Bobby’s family and friends discover something important: the best way to understand Bobby is to think a little like him. Instead of trying to change him, they learn to appreciate the unique way he experiences the world.

This warm, empowering picture book encourages children, parents, educators, and carers to see the world through the eyes of a neurodivergent child. It reminds readers that every mind works differently and wonderfully.
