Warning: this book contains strong language (which may be unsuitable for children). There's enough solidly inspirational and profoundly beautiful literature out there already for your reading pleasure, I won't add to that. Instead I offer you this. I wrote it. I felt compelled to do so because I have a suspicion that, like me, we all worry about and over analyse the same things in life. We are all just anxious meatbags, trying to get along. We all want similar (ish) things. Happiness, family, love, safety, FAME and a metabolism that helpfully speeds up annually on the event of our passing birthdays. I found this quote a few years ago, it came up as I was scrolling on the internet. It's so beautiful it actually hurts. "You're a ghost driving a meat coated skeleton, made from stardust. What do you have to be scared of?" It's deep isn't it? It's basically the theme of this book. It's aim and my intention is to alleviate worries and reassure the reader that we are all the same inside. We ALL relate to the same s*** that keeps us awake at night. I'll be honest... I swear like a trucker, but I sure can write and I have good intentions. And, as the front cover states- it's a guide to surviving the best bits of life and holding our middle fingers up to the rest! - Bind

With a series of 'music in care' books aimed at supporting adults through a range of life's situations using music, John Osborne has collaborated with a new young author to bring fresh perspective on how the power of music can affect a young person's life. Coping with moving to a new school can be a difficult and challenging time for any young person but it can be even more problematic if you are on the autistic spectrum. This book tells the story of Luke Fiddes a remarkable young man and talented musician. It explains how Luke became aware of his different and special status and how he learnt to manage this. It also contains a self help manual for all young people which is designed to help deal with the struggles of adolescence using personalised music. This heartwarming, funny and frank account of Luke's journey gives a remarkable insight into some of the challenges but also the surprising benefits of living with Asperger syndrome. "I love my autism because I love music." Luke Fiddes

This book explores how we should review our priorities in the increasingly hectic and fast changing, yet ever smaller, world in which we live. It has been written with younger people at heart, those of us asking questions about our place in the world and how we might better live our lives in a manner that minimises stress and helps us to be valued by our peers by helping others to help themselves. The book provides insights into sources of harmony within our lives, that we can use to maintain our moral compass and improve our decision-making. "You, Who You Are, and Why You Matter" is promoted by The CareAbout Foundation.
