“A warm tale with stunning illustrations. I wish there had been a dog like Dexter at my school. So charming.” - Elle McNicoll, multi-award winning author of ‘A Kind of Spark’
“A beautiful book that helps discuss neurodiversity - sometimes all we need is a little understanding and a helping paw.” - Louise Gooding, author of ‘Wonderfully Wired Brains: An Introduction to the World of Neurodiversity’
This book introduces readers to neurodiversity, through the lovable school dog, Dexter. Scenarios like the first day of term, outdoor learning, and the school play can affect children in different ways, but Dexter has a way of naturally helping all the diverse children he meets, making them feel calm and happy .
A ‘GENTLY RELATABLE’ STORY ABOUT HOW WE ALL EXPERIENCE SCHOOL DIFFERENTLY.
“Dexter is not only the endearing story of a loveable, positive and calm school dog, he shows us readers how inclusion should work in schools – whether that’s children reading the books or their parents, teachers, families and more. Great stuff, we love it!” - Next Page Books (UK children’s bookshop that celebrates & supports neurodiversity in children and families.)
