A different way to focus

In Cloud Boy, distraction becomes a visible part of Bobby’s world: sights, sounds, and smells lift him into the air. His attempt to stay grounded by tying himself down leaves him feeling empty, prompting a question about whether the people around him might also adapt. The story’s imaginative premise connects neurodiversity with belonging and the possibility of understanding across different ways of thinking. Greg Stobbs’s picture book is described as inspired by his own experiences.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 interested in imaginative picture-book stories.
  • Families and educators looking for a story that introduces neurodiversity.
  • Young readers exploring different ways of paying attention and relating to others.

Book overview

A vibrant, imaginative story celebrating diverse minds--illustrated by artist Greg Stobbs and inspired by his own experiences.

Whenever Bobby gets distracted, he starts to float--there are so many sights and sounds and smells which draw his attention.

Bobby wants to concentrate like his friends, so he ties himself to the ground so he can't drift too far, but that just makes him feel empty inside . . . Maybe there's a different way? What might happen if Bobby's family and friends learn to think more like him?
