About the Author

James Dreyer has Autism Spectrum Disorder. He spent the beginning of his school career in a learning environment that was geared for children on the spectrum. James was therefore just "a learner". However, as he grew older, he began to recognise that he was different from other children outside of school. People treated him very differently and in many cases, unkindly. He started to feel like he didn't fit into the world. To explain how he felt, he wrote the story about Castor Bean.
