Scott Evans Books

A book to broaden horizons! Although aimed at KS2 pupils, this information book about neurodiversity and brains is as much for adults as children: parents and teachers will learn, or be gently reminded, about mindful language and changing perceptions of neurodiversity. Do you and your pupils know about sunflower lanyards, identity-first versus person-first language or neuroplasticity?

Scott Evans, a teacher and neurodivergent spokesperson, has created an empowering guide that celebrates the uniqueness of every brain and blends neuroscience with understanding, offering readers an accessible introduction to how the brain works and why neurodiversity matters. The narration speaks directly to the reader, reassuring them that their brains are not only powerful but are extraordinary. All Brains Are Wonderful encourages self-awareness, kindness and curiosity, making it a valuable resource for classrooms and families alike.

The illustrations by The Boy Fitz Hammond are a great match for the text—bright, expressive and inclusive (from freckles to braces to vitiligo) – they bring the science to life, helping to convey the book’s core message: that all people matter.
