This book was inspired by a direct conversation between the author and his son. Someone had told his son that he was weird. At bedtime as the son was being tucked in he asked, "Am I weird?!" Born from this came a loving and eye opening conversation between parent and child that has been ongoing for years now. Yes, being neurodivergent makes you different and at times people will not understand you and you will not understand others, this does not make you weird. The author goes on to point out some characteristics that his son has that maybe others on the spectrum do and encourages his son to embrace them because at the end of the day the person inside who sees the world so innocently and treats people kindly and sees the good in all of the bad in the world is what this world needs more of. So if that is weird, then the author and everyone else should want to be weird.
