Critics Review
A timely and beautifully executed book. – Con O’Neill, actor and star of Our Flag Means Death
For autistic teens, making sense of gender identity and sexuality can be such a complex and confusing time. This workbook is like a supportive chat with a trusted friend, with Erin guiding the reader with compassion, knowledge and acceptance.A great strength of this book is its interactivity, through various activities and thinking exercises it creates a safe space for young people to work out how these themes relate to them. This makes for a truly personalised reading experience that centres the experiences of the reader.The Queerly Autistic Workbook also doesn’t shy away from difficult aspects of coming out, consent and online safety. It boldly demystifies these areas so that autistic young people are empowered to set and protect their boundaries.For any autistic young person with questions around their sexuality or gender, this workbook will be a truly indispensable source of support that will leave them feeling seen and celebrated.
