Overview
Ellie wants to befriend her mostly non-verbal classmate Dylan. That’s why she draws pictures of his favorite animals: dinosaurs. But Dylan doesn’t seem to like the drawings, nor Ellie, which makes her sad. Luckily, Ellie’s dads and Dylan’s parents help her learn that sharing one’s feelings isn’t always easy.
Dinosaurs for Dylan is a touching and inclusive tale that explores the complexities of friendship, especially when faced with differences. As Ellie navigates her relationship with Dylan, readers are invited into a world where neurodiversity takes center stage. Dylan's love for dinosaurs and his distinct approach to classroom activities provide valuable insights into his experiences.
This story serves as a valuable conversation starter about neurodiversity and being on the spectrum, encouraging empathy and understanding among young readers. Through Ellie's journey, children learn the importance of embracing differences and celebrating the unique qualities that make each individual special.
A sweet and inclusive story about empathy and the many different shapes of friendship. For children ages 5 years and up.
