In the organizer's words:

Reading and discussion with the author Kathrin Köller and the illustrator Irmela Schautz: With fun and full of practical examples, you will learn what makes our brains tick and what barriers neurodivergent people face.

The pressure to function is great in our society. Unfortunately, anyone who ticks differently quickly has the feeling that they are not quite right. Yet today we know what makes neurodivergent brains tick: different, but right! In this interactive reading, youth literature prize winners Kathrin Köller and Irmela Schautz take a positive look at the diversity of our brains.

They provide an overview of neurodiversity, from ADHD and autism to lesser-known neurodivergences such as dyslexia and dyspraxia. And you don't have to be a neuroscientist to understand it all. With fun and full of practical examples, the bookmakers explain what makes our brains tick and what barriers neurodivergent people face. Kathrin Köller and Irmela Schautz talk about how the book came about, their touching conversations with young people from the various communities, they present short videos, show illustrations and encourage discussion.
