Archie Can't Sit Still is a tale of creativity, noise, and adventure. Archie can battle dragons and soar through the skies, but there's one thing he struggles with—sitting still!

This energetic story examines the challenges of having a busy brain and a restless body. Despite this, everything shifts when Archie reaches the go-kart track, where his hyperfocus kicks into high gear.

Archie Can't Sit Still offers a positive and engaging narrative about living with ADHD and explores what it means for children to be neurodivergent.

About the Author

Dani Vee is a children’s author, publisher, podcaster and educator. Dani is the author of junior fiction titles Riley’s FAILPROOF Guide to Breaking a School Record and My Pet Croc. She is also a picture book author of My EXTRAordinary Mum and the My EPIC Dad! series. She enjoys writing humorous books that provide opportunities for discussions about breaking stereotypes and resilience. Dani’s literary podcast, Words and Nerds, has had more than one million downloads. James Layton’s aptly named publishing business Larrikin House says it all. He seriously forgot to grow up, so he’s pretty much still a kid in an adult's body. James giggled his way through the writing of ‘Would You Rather?’ with many scenarios so wrong they had to be edited out. The ones that survived the cut are because James is the publisher and there was nobody to tell him no!
