In this episode, we talk with author–illustrator Jackie Adrian and occupational therapist Sarah Collins about their collaborative picture book, A Chameleon Tale. They share how their partnership began, why chameleons make the perfect metaphor for sensory processing, and how they worked together to turn complex sensory concepts into a kid-friendly, colorful story.
Jackie and Sarah discuss how key scenes—like the bustling café—help children recognize different sensory experiences, what challenges they faced in creating the book, and the heartfelt feedback they’ve already received from families and educators. They also share hopes for how the book will be used and whether more stories on neurodiversity might be ahead.
