All About Brains

Acclaimed actress, screenwriter, and director Lake Bell brings us a celebration of all the ways our different brains make us special in this adorable picture book about neurodiversity.

Description

In her debut picture book, acclaimed actress, screenwriter, and director Lake Bell weaves a joyfully whimsical story that celebrates the beauty of neurodiversity.

For share day at school, Nova has to bring in something that makes her unique, and she knows just the thing: her breakfast pickles!

But when the fridge opens to an empty pickle jar, Nova has to find a new share, and her morning medicine leads to the perfect idea: her brain sparkles!

When Nova tells the class about her epilepsy, at first they’re confused, and she starts to worry, are her brain sparkles too unique? But Nova isn’t the only one in her class with a unique brain, and when her classmates start sharing too, what follows is a fun exploration of all the wonderful ways people and their brains are different.
