So you think you are weird, well award winning author Camilla Pang has news for you; we are all different in our own special way. We all see and experience the world in a slightly different way, we all have our own strange little behaviours, likes and dislikes and things that make us afraid; WE ARE ALL WEIRD in our own wonderful and unique way.

Camilla’s love of and interest in science has helped her use the things she understood (like gravity and light waves) to help her comprehend the things she couldn’t, like when to give people a hug or when to smile. Science helped her to feel at ease with the people around her and more importantly with herself. Did you know that chemical reactions reveal the magic of being an individual or that you can find your passions with photosynthesis? You can learn to manage your emotions by likening it to different weathers.

Enjoy this easy to read scientific guide to growing up with its helpful hints and easy to understand scientific explanations. You will learn a great deal about yourself and science.

Remember to celebrate being your most diverse, beautiful and incredible self.

Note to Parents: Camilla Pang brings to this book a real understanding of feeling different from the ‘norm’ as she was diagnosed with autism when she was eight years old. Her anecdotal references to her experiences growing up allows the adult reader to gain a greater insight into those on the autism spectrum.
