Ever wondered what goes on inside the neurodivergent brain?

Known and loved by his family and friends as quirky and different, Travis is a man on a mission to find his purpose in a world that often throws him grenades.

Through the pitfalls of high school, the workplace and dating scene, he shares an honest account of his personal struggles with undiagnosed autism, ADHD and dyslexia.

Written with dark humour and powerful reflection, Stairway to the Spectrum is an entertaining and thought-provoking memoir which will appeal to anybody who has ever felt uncomfortable in their own skin.
