Meet Suzy — the newest taxi at the Creative Cab Company®
Suzy is the newest cab at the Creative Cab Company®. Friendly, a little nervous, and eager to help, Suzy has ADHD; her attention can zigzag like city traffic, but with a few simple tools and a little support, her spark really shines.
On her first day, she misses a few turns, and wonders if she’s cut out for the job.
Then Suzy does what brave kids do: she asks for help, uses simple tools, and lets her creativity lead. Soon she’s exploring city landmarks with growing confidence and sharing her bright spark with every passenger. Her journey reminds us that our differences aren’t roadblocks—they’re superpowers.
Co-written by Lynn Greenberg and her son, illustrator-co-author Jonathan Greenberg, who lives with dyslexia and ADHD, this tale invites families to celebrate neurodiversity.
