Today is #WorldAutismAcceptanceDay and we are marking autism awareness all week at my library job 🤗
I was diagnosed six years ago this week, I’ve been permanent at my job nearly a year. I wish more people like myself were in employment. My colleagues do enjoy my creativity and skillset. 📖

This was well worth the library hold wait for! 62 pages long but absolutely confirms why we should all read children’s books, no matter your age!
Hopefully one day, I can be that specialist children’s librarian 🤞🏻🥰

I really don’t want to get this though Amazon but everywhere else I’ve tried is all sold out in the UK or out of print. If #booksky #booktok #librarysky could help me find a copy, I would really appreciate it! (PS: I study library science)

All the fantastic #KidLit books that I have read over the last few months during my work as a #libraryassistant!
Mr Blunden in particular had ghosts, time travel and a love story all included. Would love to find others in the #writingcommunity who have stories along these lines!
