Specially written for children on the autistic spectrum, and grounded in their real-life experiences, this book is more than just a playful bedtime story and will provide its young audience with real comfort. Like lots of children, Pablo doesn’t want to go to sleep, but he has a particular way of coping. Pablo draws the night as deep, dark blue, a blue so deep and dark that his friends the toys can’t see anything. Wren is worried that they’ve disappeared and won’t come back, but Mouse is able to reassure him that everyone is still there. Next Pablo draws an Always Sun, and that can keep him feeling sparkly. As he recreates the night with his crayons and then conjures up his own light, Pablo is able to soothe himself and children like him, and calmly goes to sleep.
Pablo thinks differently! Join Pablo and his friends in a lovely and heartwarming story! Pablo and his friend Wren don't want to go to sleep because they think they will disappear. The rest of Pablo's friends rally round them and help them understand that there is nothing to be worried about at night time.
All Pablo books are written by writers on the autistic spectrum and are grounded in the real-life experiences of autistic children.
Pablo is the first animated TV series to star an autistic character and the first TV programme with an all-autistic core cast. It is shown on CBBC, RTE and Netflix.
