About
The author of the award-winning A Walk in the Words shows readers the joy and challenges of navigating the world as a kid with ADHD.
It sure is hard to focus when your curiosity is boundless! That was Hudson Talbott's story when he was little and easily distracted by everything, his attention bouncing from one shiny object to the next. But eventually he was able to see his curiosity as a gift because shiny objects can spark bright ideas-and he was full of them!
Capturing both the challenges and rewards of having a super-active imagination, this empowering story encourages us all-neurodivergent and neurotypical thinkers alike-to embrace our perceived limitations and enjoy the journey of learning how to turn them to our advantage. Hudson Talbott (HudsonTalbott.com) also wrote and illustrated Schneider Family Honor winner A Walk in the Words, as well as Picturing America, River of Dreams, From Wolf to Woof, United Tweets of America, and It's All About Me-ow, and has illustrated numerous picture books, including Newbery Honor winner Show Way (by Jacqueline Woodson) and Leonardo's Horse (by Jean Fritz), an ALA Notable and VOYA Honor Book. He lives in the Hudson Valley of New York and in New York City.
