For young Neurodivergent Minds
Helping children understand emotions, cope with change, and build confidence one story at a time.
My children’s collections, including Big Feelings Are OK and I Can Calm, were created to help children develop emotional regulation, self-confidence, flexible thinking, and everyday coping skills.
Designed for autistic children, ADHD children, neurodivergent children, highly sensitive children, and anxious children, these gentle stories explore some of the challenges many families face every day, including:
• Big feelings and emotional overwhelm
• Coping with change and unexpected events
• Managing frustration and disappointment
• Transitions and changes in routine
• Sensory sensitivities and sensory regulation
• Screen-time boundaries

Through engaging characters and practical strategies, children learn how to identify feelings, understand their emotions, and develop healthy ways to calm their minds and bodies.
Perfect for parents, carers, grandparents, teachers, and SEND professionals looking for emotional regulation books for kids, autism books for children, ADHD books for children, social emotional learning books, and stories that help children navigate everyday challenges with confidence.
Because every child deserves to feel understood, supported, and capable.

Because personal growth shouldn’t feel like homework.
Humour, Midlife Mayhem & Laughing Through the Chaos
Some stories are designed to teach.
These ones are designed to make you snort tea through your nose.
Inspired by real people, real situations, and the glorious chaos of everyday life, these books celebrate imperfect humans, questionable decisions, friendship, hormones, and the art of laughing at yourself before anyone else gets the chance.
Whether it’s navigating the rollercoaster of perimenopause, surviving modern life with a brain that has its own agenda, or following a group of women who have absolutely no intention of ageing gracefully, these stories are packed with humour, honesty, and characters you’ll probably recognise from your own life.
Inside you’ll find:
• Wickedly funny observations about modern life
• Midlife chaos, friendship, dating, and hormones
• Humorous takes on OCD tendencies and overactive minds
• Women who refuse to act their age
• Real-life inspired characters and situations
• Self-deprecating humour, sharp wit, and plenty of laughs
From How to Age Disgracefully, a funny novel about friendship, midlife adventures, and women refusing to behave, to darkly humorous takes on obsessive thinking, everyday absurdities, and the strange situations life throws at us, these books are for readers who enjoy humour with heart.
No perfect lives.
No perfect people.
Just funny stories about wonderfully flawed humans trying their best and occasionally making things far more complicated than necessary.
Because getting older is mandatory. Growing up is entirely optional.
Explore self-help books for anxiety, overthinking, people-pleasing, boundaries, confidence, emotional burnout, modern dating, toxic relationships, ghosting, gaslighting, neurodivergent readers, and real-life personal growth.Nicola Ahern Creative
