Imagine inviting a new friend over to play, but first, you have to explain something important—something that makes your brother a little different. In About My Brother, Kathleen Mooney draws from her own childhood experiences to create a heartfelt and relatable story about growing up with a sibling who has special needs. Told from the perspective of an energetic 8-year-old, the narrative opens as Katie invites a friend (the reader) over to play. She wants to share her world with her new friend, but she knows she needs to prepare them to meet her brother. He might not play like other kids, and he might do things that seem a little strange. Through Katie's eyes, readers are invited into a world where apprehension gradually transforms into empathy, compassion, and even laughter. As the story unfolds, we get to know Kevin—his quirks, his unique way of interacting with the world, and the special bond he shares with his family. About My Brother provides invaluable insight and understanding for young readers. Children with siblings who have special needs will find their experiences reflected, while others will gain a deeper understanding of neurodiversity. This book goes beyond simply explaining disabilities; it fosters a sense of inclusion and encourages children to embrace differences. This engaging narrative is an excellent resource for elementary schools, teachers, schools with neurodiverse programs, and parents of elementary-aged children. It serves as a springboard for important conversations about neurodiversity, kindness, empathy, and inclusion. By sharing Katie and Kevin's story, About My Brother empowers children to build bridges of understanding and celebrate the unique qualities that make each person special.
