A heartwarming children's book about narcolepsy, friendship, and embracing differences.

Sprout is a curious, creative, and non-binary squirrel who loves climbing trees, collecting acorns, and playing with their friends. But when they start falling asleep during class, feeling weak when they laugh, and waking up unable to move, Sprout begins to feel confused, different, and alone.

With the support of their mom and a kind doctor, Sprout discovers they have narcolepsy-a serious neurological sleep disorder. Through care, creativity, and connection, they begin to understand their condition and learn new ways to thrive.

Sleepy Sprout: Learning to Live with Narcolepsy is a beautifully illustrated children's book that helps young readers and their caregivers:

  • Understand narcolepsy and its symptoms
  • Build empathy for kids with chronic or invisible illnesses
  • Celebrate neurodiversity and the power of being different
Perfect for parents, teachers, therapists, and medical professionals, this story opens the door for meaningful conversation about health, identity, and support.

Includes a glossary of key terms and a list of helpful resources for kids and caregivers.
