A joyful rhyming picture book exploring neurodiversity that's perfect for EVERY young reader.

There’s a drummer in my head.

They are tiny, but they’re there.

And they tap-a-tap-tap and pa-rum-pa-pum-pum

All day without a care…

Sounds distracting? It can be! The little drummer beats fast and loud when I'm overwhelmed. The little drummer taps out a rhythm when I'm trying to concentrate… And the little drummer knows just how to make me smile…

Debut children’s author Sian Radford shares her experience of neurodivergence in this playful, imaginative picture book – perfect for ALL readers.
