This book also introduces children to the signs and symptoms of common developmental disabilities, such as Down syndrome and autism spectrum disorder. Most importantly, this book normalizes conversations about mental health and encourages children to reach out to their parents, teachers, or doctors if they ever want to talk to someone about their feelings.
