About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
The highs, the lows and the delightfully neurospicy – this book is for every parent raising the ‘in-between’ children in a neurotypical world.
How many times have you heard ‘he doesn’t look autistic’ or ‘she seems fine to me’? Do you sometimes feel alone as a parent, like no one really gets it? And have you ever watched in horror as your child told a friend their house was ‘boring and smelly’?!
If any of that sounds familiar, it’s time to throw out the perfect parenting guides and join Lisa Lloyd on this rollercoaster journey of raising neurodivergent children who don’t fit the mainstream but aren’t considered ‘severe’ either. Lisa has been there and is ready to tell all – from the confusion of the early years and discovering your child is neurodivergent, to navigating a school system that doesn’t seem to fit, and the daily frustrations of picking your battles (and losing most of them).
Ever wondered what would happen if you took your autistic three-year-old on a haunted ghost ride? Or what your reaction would be if your seven-year-old grabbed a stranger’s backfat in the changing rooms? Wonder no more! Raising the SEN-Betweeners is a very honest guide for all those parents in similar shoes, navigating the challenges, joys and hilariously unpredictable moments every day. If that is you, this book will make one thing very clear: you are not alone.

No longer alone
What an incredible book, telling exactly how it is. I feel so much connections with all the things said, it made laugh and cry and am now trying to get my husband, family and friends to listen to it, it will be so eye opening to them.
Thank you Lisa x

Brilliant!
Loved the book Lisa. Relate to so much. My son’s a bit older now so some of it took me back to those days. A great listen for anyone with neurodivergent children.

What an incredible relatable book, I listened to it all in 48 hours, I couldn’t stop! From the first poem I was hooked and couldn’t believe how much I could relate. Thank you for making me feel seen and I’m not alone in all I’ve gone through and feel
