Through the Eyes of Elephants: A Neurodivergent Mother’s Journey
About
In this intimate and powerful collection of poetry and monologues, Jacoria Little invites you into the raw, resilient world of neurodivergent motherhood — where diagnosis becomes a doorway, and love rewrites every rule.
Told through three parts — The Head, The Body, and The Spirit — this book explores the mind’s questions, the body’s routines, and the soul’s enduring hope. From the first whispers of “something different” to the daily rhythms of sensory needs, meltdowns, and moments of pure joy, each piece offers a tender glimpse into raising an autistic child while recognizing one’s own reflection in their struggles and strengths.
This is a story of elephants — of memory, of protection, of softness cloaked in strength.
Of what it means to mother.
To unmask.
To belong.
Inside you’ll find:
Free verse and list poems, diary entries, and spoken-word-style monologues
A celebration of difference, not defect
Healing words for parents, educators, and anyone walking the path of neurodivergence
For every parent who has ever wondered if love is enough — this book is a reminder: it always is.
