Yenn lives in Canberra, Australia. Sam Rose is an Autistic and non binary person. This is their first book.

Much needed! In this beautiful collaboration, the amazing Yenn Purkis and Sam Rose have created a fantastic, easy-to-follow guide for Autistic young people (full of practical information and activities to help gender diverse youth work out their complex feelings). -- Lyric (NeuroDivergent Rebel)
