Celebrating the world of words

Join Olivia Macnab and co-author Dr. Clare Lawrence at Gannets during the book festival for an insightful discussion on how to overcome barriers to creativity in autism.

For many years, we have been told that autistic people cannot understand metaphors or non-literal language and that we cannot be creative or empathise. But in truth, autistic people are incredibly creative!

Embark on a journey of play, exploration and metaphor to discover the importance of play and creativity in creating empathy across Neurotypes in their new book, Creativity in Autism.
