Football-mad Lilly gets surprise tickets to a big match, but the sights, sounds and smells of the stadium quickly become overwhelming. A chance encounter shows her she's not alone.
View BookMy journey into writing children's books began with my incredible daughter, Kya, who is autistic. Her unique perspective and resilience inspired me to share her story and raise awareness about autism.
Witnessing her experiences made me realise the importance of fostering understanding and empathy for individuals with autism and disabilities. Each story explores different aspects of these themes, highlighting the strengths, challenges, and unique perspectives of the characters.
In addition to writing, I support charities that align with my mission of promoting inclusivity and understanding. I donate a large percentage of my royalties to organisations like Scope, Dogs for Autism, and Dogs for Good. These charities work tirelessly to improve the lives of individuals with disabilities, and I am proud to support their efforts.
"Page after page of stories to encourage exploration and understanding of differences and ignite the determination and imagination of children, parents and teachers. This special book is a fantastic resource for the classroom or to share at home."

Jon has created a beautiful book in praise of his amazing daughter. The illustrations are captivating and I love the way it highlights the world through the eyes of a young person on the autism spectrum.
Autistic Public Speaker
'Through the Eyes of Me' is a great children's book that looks at what life is like for Kya as a young autistic girl. It's done in a simple, easy to follow and extremely positive way that could be helpful to other autistic children and many children in general to simply understand autism.

An orchestra has many instruments that harmonise together to create a wonderful sound. Humans each have strengths and weaknesses, but we need them all to create a vibrant world. This book beautifully demonstrates that.

Through the Eyes of Us — raising awareness
ASD stands for Autism Spectrum Disorder. At Strawberry ASD, we use storytelling to raise awareness of autism and celebrate neurodiversity through inclusive children’s picture books.
Strawberry ASD is a UK children’s book brand created by Jon Roberts and illustrator Hannah Rounding. Together, we create inclusive picture books that help children understand autism, empathy, and difference in a warm, accessible way.
The books are written by Jon Roberts, a father from Wales, and beautifully illustrated by Hannah Rounding. Jon’s daughter Kya, who is autistic, inspires the stories and the themes of empathy, understanding, and everyday life.
Our books are designed for children aged approximately 3–9, but they are loved by families, educators, and older readers too. They are especially helpful for classrooms, families with autistic children, and anyone wanting to promote inclusion and understanding.
Yes. Our autism awareness books are used in hundreds of schools across the UK to support disability inclusion, empathy, and conversations about Autism Spectrum Disorder in a positive, child-friendly way.
Stories help children connect emotionally. Through relatable characters and thoughtful illustrations, our books gently explore sensory experiences, communication differences, and feelings — helping children develop empathy and understanding.
Our books are available through selected retailers and publishers listed on this website. You can follow the links provided to purchase online or check availability through your local bookshop.
